Rose Condo is a multi-slam winning poet and performer who hails from the Canadian prairies. Last year she toured her solo spoken word show, The Geography of Me to theatres, cafes, front rooms and a village library. She soon heads to Edinburgh (with extremely blonde hair!) to perform in Desert Bloom -- Claire Haddon’s one-woman play exploring the myth of Marilyn Monroe.

David Jarman
David Jarman is a playwright, songwriter and spoken-word artist from York. He began performing poetry around the same time that he started writing songs with too many words in - something which he still does to this day; meaning that David can be seen speaking words solo, or as part of York band Gobbledigook.
Liz Venn
Liz Venn is a poet based in Manchester and the House Poet for the Carol Ann Duffy and Friends series of poetry readings at the Royal Exchange Theatre.
Her poems have been published in CAST: The Poetry Business Book of New and Contemporary Poets, the North, Magma, Iota, Smiths Knoll and The Frogmore Papers. She was the winner of the 2014 Poets and Players Prize and the inaugural Bare Fiction Poetry Prize. In 2012, she graduated from an MA in Creative Writing (Poetry) from Manchester Metropolitan University.

I would like to point out, once again; for the benefit of all; organisers and attendees; the importance of keeping adverts for events correct and up to date. I walked to Manchester from Leeds, (once again) in persuit of new audiences and new markets for my poetry; in early May. Only to find, when I got there, after an 18 hour, overnight forced march; that first of all; the venue had been wrongly named in the gig guide, as 'Lloyds Bar', rather than 'The Lloyd' public house; therfore unsearchable on line. Then when I finally found it; waited and waited until the manager finally turned up and told us (bar staff and myself) that the event had been postponed, to fit in with Chorlton Arts Festival. This is typical of Manchester, which at one time, had far more out of date, or incorrect ads, on the gig guide, than ones that were current and correct. I know the guide has been reformed and some faults fixed since then; so it's now fairly reliable. But please, if anyone finds any faults with the adverts report them so that they can be corrected. Not everyone has the time online to double check every event, especially if one is searching for multiple events at short notice. To make the point; I have to add that, following disappointment at the Lloyd, I walked the streets of Manchester in the rain; dozed off in doorways until morning light; then walked home again. 70 miles in 2 days; an amazing walk, but would have been much more so; and less punishing if the event had been advertised correctly.
