Word Central

Word Central Open Mic Poetry and Spoken Word.

Presented by Flapjack Press and Manchester Libraries.

Tuesday 19th May, 6.00pm – 7.45pm

Doors open 5.40pm and free entry.

Hosted by Tony Curry with special guest Cathy Shaw.

Our special guest Cathy Shaw’s poems tend to be either gut wrenchingly sad or laugh out loud funny. Based in Hebden Bridge, she is a massage therapist and celebrant by day, and a poetry promoter and event host, creator of The Poetry of it All, and curator of the annual Heptonstall Spoken Word Festival.

Book your open mic slot from noon on Tuesday 5th May via mail@flapjackpress.co.uk.

N.B. Open mic slots are 3 minutes per performer – it is essential that you stay within this timeframe.

Performance slots are allocated on a ‘first come, first served’ basis from the stated booking time. If they are already filled, you will be offered a place on the reserve list.
