The Geet Muckle Slam returns to Northern Stage once again.
Translation:
Geet – great or very (Tyneside)
Muckle – very large (Northern English/Scottish)
Slam – poetry competition where the audience is the judge
Twelve of the finest spoken poets go head to head in a war of words.
There can only be one winner to become the ultimate Geet Muckle Slam Champion
You decide…
Slam poetry is poetry of the 21st century – combining the finest writing, high energy performances, competition, and audience participation. You are given the power to praise or, sometimes, destroy a poem. So listen, watch, and use your power wisely.
Entries are now open via the Born Lippy inbox/bio or by emailing [email protected].
Plus special guest...TBA
