Competitive poetry with a twist!About this Event
Witness dead poets come back to life before your eyes!
In a Dead Poets' Slam, instead of reading their own work, performers will read the work of dead poets, using costumes and props and maybe even funny voices to bring their poets back to life. Every poet will perform twice. The top three (selected by a panel of expert judges) will then compete for the Dead Poet championship!
Hosted by Dorothy Parker, this will be a fun evening of literature from poets who never shared a stage when they were alive.
Prizes for the winners are being generously donated by the artist Catherine Redgate: https://www.catherine-redgate.co.uk/
Many thanks to the Waverley Bar for hosting.
