This show will take the Poetry in the Basement year to a full circle - the whole thing started off with '59 Shades of Night' on the 17th of November 2012, and we've gradually built a good reputation and a reliable following. Each show has a different theme (so far we've done sex, death, zombies, life and confessions), and there is always a competition with a prize. Fun night, not to be taken too seriously - this show's best known as a welcoming performance platform where it's acceptable to play around and risk self-humiliation with a supportive and loving crowd. Some deep and painful confessions were made in the Confession-themed show - I'm looking forward to seeing what sorts of things everyone will be ready to reveal about their bad romances this month.
