Ladies and gents, this is the one you've been waiting for... Uncaged is back with our monthly shenanigans, and all the fun and excitement that comes from a mix of alcohol and words. We've had people travel from Chesterfield, Nottingham Leicester, Market Rasen, Sleaford, Grantham, Boston, and beyond to take part. So come and see what all the excitement is about 🥂🍾
Ron Booth comperes the evening with verve and gusto, signing people up for a slot from 7pm ready to kick off at 8pm. If you read poetry, write flash fiction stories (5-10 minutes) have a stand up comedy set, or want to play some music (We prefer acoustic to account for set up time) come and book yourself a slot.
Special Guest: James Scott-Howes is Leicester’s premier Screamo poetry dandy. On stage he is a maelstrom of energy. James’ tongue twisting odes to mental health struggles and triumphs, love, mortality, self-acceptance and the frothing rage incited by discarded trolleys, has earned him a reputation as a one-of-a-kind spoken word artist, performing feature sets up and down the country for the last five years. In July 2024 James published his debut collection ‘Unstable Boi; Poems of Love, Despair and Nu-Metal’ through Mini Poetry Press. A book that was described as ‘fiercely compassionate lyrical genius’ by poetry legend Jemima Hughes. Whether on stage or in print James Scott-Howes’ work is innocently whimsical, crushingly sad and laugh out loud funny, often at the same time. James is a completely unique force of aggressive positivity that has to be seen to be believed.
Can't wait to see you all again (and new faces too) for our next regular monthly event of the year, at The Birdcage, Lincoln. Sign up 7.00-8.00 and then let's be
OUTSPOKEN!
