An interactive Spoken Word Experience. Participants will explore the art of performance poetry through a combination of creative writing activities, performance games and free-writes — usually ending in a high energy open mic. It is difficult to describe the magic that happens when a budding poet spits a piece for the first time, but it’s definitely one of those things you have to be there for. The power of your voice is a force unparalleled to any other weapon on this planet. Try it yourself.
