An evening of exhilarating spoken word at Brighton's longest-running poetry slam. Featuring Redeeming Features, LJ O'Hagan and last month's slam winner, Ayana Playle. Hosted by the hilarious Leanne Shorley in the glorious Tusk Club @ The Walrus.
Doors open at 7pm and the show starts at 8pm.
HOW TO SLAM: Get yourself a 'Take Part in the Slam - Performer Ticket' and prepare an original poem of 3 minutes or less (no music, no props). Any style, any theme, anything you want! It doesn't have to be memorised and you're more than welcome to read from paper/your phone.
Please be aware the performance space is in a basement which is only accessible via a flight of stairs. There is space to store wheelchairs / a mobility scooter on the ground floor. Assistance dogs are welcome.
