Talking Cities: Performance Poetry
Free! No need to book / 6.30pm / The Library Theatre, Birmingham Central Library, Paradise Place, Birmingham B3 3HQ
Hosted by, and featuring, Birmingham’s Poet Laureate Roy McFarlane plus a host of special guests [watch this space!], this evening of performance poetry looks at cities – our own and those we visit. Supported by Birmingham Libraries.
Partly inspired by Poet Laureate Roy’s recent visit to Amsterdam, this event encourages other poets to think about the places that mean something to them – home and away.
Lively, touching and not without laughs, this showcase has been devised specially for The Spring Thing.
Guest poets on the night include Dave Reeves, Julie Boden, Bohdan Piasecki, Kadisha, Alan’ Kurly’ McGeachie and Roz Goddard.
