OpenMind Presents: Yusra Warsama is the 3rd monthly event on the road to the OpenMind Festival of Independent Artists and we've got variety at its best with a packed card of 3 guest bands, a guest dance company, a comedian, our headliner Yusra Warsama and of course the OpenSpace where you the audience get to participate in 5 minute slots.

This will also mark the 1st time we'll be streaming our show live on our website www.openmindcollective.org.uk

Our guests this month all represent a distinctive style or genre within variety performance.

A Means to an End are an acoustic poetry/music combo from Bolton, and the guys in charge of the Guitar 'n' Verse night there.

Silent Slave are a thrash metal band based in Macclesfield.

Judgement Dave is an up and coming comedian in the Manchester comedy scene.

Stereo Espionage are a talented electro rock/alternative outfit.

Poor Man's Dance are a Yorkshire based dance company we've been networking with for awhile thanks to Ideas Tap. We're looking forward to finally seeing what they do firsthand.

Our headliner for the evening is the immensely talented Yusra Warsama, a potent poet and MC who'll be sharing some new work with us.

As always we have the OpenSpace, where performers of all kinds have an open space to express themselves and share their artistic talents.
