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 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.
We are inclusive, diverse and friendly - we have published authors performing, and we also have writers just starting out and building up confidence - everybody is welcome (just respect your fellow 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’. That doesn't matter - we want to hear what you write!
February is an odd month - beyond Winter but not quite Spring, and our February theme is one that you can interpret as you will - 'Unclean Spirits' - maybe something dark from demonic realms, or some very rancid dirty ghosts, or just a dodgy bottle of vodka from a peculiar backstreet shop that wasn't there the following day
Please respect your fellow readers and remember, the five-minute time limit applies.
Information for readers and performers can be found on this page.
Please email: [email protected] to reserve a five-minute reading slot, or message me on Facebook.
