Open Mic Event
Contact: events@allographic.co.uk
So, what’s Allographic Open Mic then? It’s a simple concept really - a nice function room at the top of a pleasant bistro; a stage, a microphone, a bunch of lovely people, and some words. Entry is free, but we take a donation (i.e. pay as you like). Doors are at 6:30pm and the gig kicks off at 7pm.
So - come and show us what you’ve got: step up to the open mic or enjoy the talent on display (ideally both, of course!). Pretty much anything goes, as long as you respect the audience and the ethos of the night!
Bring your poems, stories, dramatic monologues (or duologues!), improv, hip hop, and anything else that fits the bill of spoken word.
Earlier in the afternoon, we'll have a workshop at 2pm
We’ll be showing off our latest pamphlets and other poetry collections, along with the latest issue of Small Word, a poetry-short-story-photography-artwork magazine of petite loveliness that we launched in Cambridge in 2011.

And we'll have a feature in the form of lovely literata Leanne Moden, returned temporarily to the flatlands... :)
Leanne Moden has performed her poetry everywhere, from community centres and secondary schools to the Aldeburgh Poetry Festival, Bestival, and the Royal Albert Hall. She is a founding member of the ’28 Sonnets Later’ collective, and also performs as part of the ‘DIY Poets’. As part of her year as Fenland Poet Laureate in 2013, Leanne co-founded the Fen Speak spoken word poetry nights, before running off to Nottingham to seek her fortune.
Leanne’s second pamphlet ‘Liaisons’ was published by Stewed Rhubarb Press in January 2015, and she currently writing her first live literature show. She is obsessed with univocalisms, and her poetry has been described variously as ‘fucking hilarious’ and ‘completely unacceptable’.
