Join us as we launch TraVerses on Monday 25 October 8pm Traverse Bar Café.

TraVerses is a new idea. We’re inviting you to join us for an exploration of original poetry, poetry for multiple voices, poetry in collaboration and poetry that is brave enough to enter into and have a dialogue with other forms.

A ‘more-than’ open mic for poets who see poetry in three dimensions.

Artists collaborating include

JoAnne McKay, who grew up in a slaughterhouse in Romford.  http://titusthedog.blogspot.com

Simon Jackson, performing T Rex Goes Hunting in the guise of Torpedo Buoy. This poem of primordial majesty will be performed on a variety of instruments, some almost in tune.

Richard Medrington and Elspeth Murray accompanied by Hannah Haynes on harp and Buzzy Murray on violin.

Labyrinth of Wings. A very special set displaying performance poetry as total theatre, rap meets spectacle.

Words by Harlequinade; Music by GungWho, Asthmatic Astronaut; Movement by Ruby Blue, Mazzulah, Aleena P; Set and Masks by MuteHate.

Admission is free
