Earthsong: science-inspired poetry against climate change

Award-winning spoken word artists from around the world have been matched with researchers studying the causes, effects and solutions to climate change. In a mixture of exciting live performances and subtitled recordings, they’ll present poetry in a range of languages, with time for questions and answers about the experience from the live performers afterwards. The result will be a cross-cultural feast of science and poetry, investigating the danger our natural and human landscapes are facing across the globe and what we can do about it.

This event is part of the Great Exhibition Road Festival: One World.

Please arrive 10 minutes before the event begins if you have a ticket to join the event in South Kensington. If you arrive after this time, your ticket may be reallocated.
