Apples and Snakes present"Hit the Ode": electrifying spoken word poetry by the best performers from around the corner - and around the world.
Featuring: Polarbear, Hollie McNish, Sebastian 23 & Lars Ruppel
Hit the Ode is an evening of poetry, but not the dried up poetry you dissect and analyse to death. No, this is living, breathing verse; these poems will slap you, hug you, go home with you and refuse to leave. Plus here, if you want to know “what the authors meant by that”, you can find them at the bar and ask them. And it’s not just any old poets, either! So roll up, one and all, and enjoy the storytelling styles of the best know Brummie spoken word artist, Polarbear; the rhythmic and melodic verse from Hollie McNish; and the words of German slam superstars Sebastian 23 and Lars Ruppel.
As always, DJ Soesmix will provide musical counterpoints to the spoken word.
And if you write and perform poetry yourself - there will be a (very) few open mic slots available, so get there early on the day to sign up!
