42Worcester is the Worcestershire 'alternative genre' monthly Spoken Word event covering gothic, horror, sci-fi and fantasy. It is held on the last Tuesday of every month— the online section opens at 7.15pm for a 7.30pm start.42Worcester is a hybrid event. Our new venue is the wonderful Script Haven, 104 High Street, Worcester - not far from the Cathedral - the cafe/bookshop/Spoken Word Hub in a historic building where Charles Dickens once stayed . . . If you can't get there in person, we are also on Zoom, for both audience members and performers.
The Zoom invitation / link will appear here on the day.
We issue a prompt for most months of the year and while pieces that reflect the prompt are preferred, we understand that not everyone will have a piece that ‘fits’.
November is a complicated liminal month, sliding down from Autumn into Winter - so the November theme involves the experiences on the boundaries of perception - we are 'Away With the Fairies' . . . The folkloric Fae Folk aren't the cute little ballerinas with butterfly wings that we see in old illustrations to children's books - they are often terrifying, they can manipulate time, you really don't want to annoy them, but if they acknowledge you as a friend they will bestow on you great favours . . . (And don't worry if you can't think of anything - it isn't compulsory . . .)
Please email: [email protected] to reserve a five-minute reading slot, or message me on Facebook.
Please respect your fellow readers and remember, the five-minute time limit applies.
Information for readers and performers can be found on this page.
