Since May 2013, Geneviève L. Walsh, she has been founder, compere and organiser of Halifax’s Spoken Weird, a monthly poetry event which has not only featured award-winning headliners, but encouraged local writers to perform, record and publish their work.
Sarah L Dixon runs regular Quiet quiet LOUD! events in Manchester. She hosted a Medical-themed poetry event at Cheltenham Poetry Festival in 2014. Sarah is presently touring the usual Quiet Compere format (ten poets x ten minutes each) nationally, after a successful tour of the North in 2014.
Quiet Compere events enlist great established poets and accomplished poets newer to the scene. The Quiet Compere introduces them with little fanfare so the poems (and not the poet's track record) tell you all you need to know.
The Quiet Compere Tour is 'Supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England'
