This event is a bonus Fire&Dust poetry open mic gig at the Priory Visitor Centre in Coventry city centre, hosted by local poets Ann Atkins and Raef Boylan. All welcome - 'page' poets, spoken word artists, slammers, MCs, story-tellers and anyone happy to listen to some wordsmith performances. Doors open for people to come in, grab seats and get settled around 7.15pm. The gig will start at 8PM.
Open mic slots are approx. 3 minutes per poet. Find Raef (with clipboard) to sign up! It would be great to hear some Coventry-themed poems, but we're open to a variety of topics and styles.
Travelling in from afar? Got accessibility concerns? Any queries? Please contact the hosts: raef @ hcemagazine DOT com
Bring friends, bring poems, or just bring yourself along to listen and enjoy. Ideally don't bring any contagious germs.

OPEN MIC SYSTEM:
Some open mic tickets are available to reserve here on Eventbrite; the rest are for sign-up on the night. Most poets who want to read WILL get to, but sometimes the list is too busy to fit everyone in - so we recommend arriving on time/early!
Please do not take the ticket that is called ! STOP. NOT A TICKET ! This is just to prevent the 'Sold Out' alert appearing. Cheers.
