As we’ll be taking a break in December, we’re bringing the Christmas cheer early with a special end-of-year celebration — our very first Poetry Praise Scramble!This one’s all about sharing, connecting, and community spirit. You can bring:
A poem you’d like feedback on
A finished piece you’re proud of and want to share
A poem by someone else that you love and want to celebrate
Take the stage or stay comfy in your seat — whatever feels right for you just keep it under three minutes. We’ll fit in as many readers as possible, but let us know in advance if you’d like to guarantee a slot.
Dubrek will be firing up their kitchen for pizza orders on the night, and we’ll bring along festive snacks to share. If you’re planning to order pizza, please give us a heads-up so we can help them prepare.
Christmas jumpers, hats, sparkles (and general merriment) are warmly encouraged but not compulsory — it is still November, after all!
Come celebrate the end of another brilliant year of poetry, connection, and creativity with us.
For those that can afford it, we kindly ask for a suggested donation of £2 to help create poetry opportunities for the local community. Donations can be made here: https://ko-fi.com/poetrypraisesandwichderby
This event is for poets of any level, and for people who enjoy reading and listening to poetry. We want to show how poetry is for everyone.
PPS is a safe space to share work and get feedback.
