Bad Betty Press are bringing two of their most critically acclaimed performance poets, Kirsten Luckins and Tanatsei Gambura. Joining them is York punk poet Crow Rudd.
Kirsten creates eclectic, multi-artform and collaborative poetry, with an emphasis on compassion and playfulness. She is artistic director of the Tees Women Poets collective, and co-founder of the Celebrating Change digital storytelling project, where she teaches creative memoir writing.
Tanatsei Gambura is a cultural practitioner from Zimbabwe. Drawing from personal experience, her work explores the themes of black womanhood in the context of post-colonial immigration, global geopolitics and cultural identity.
The night will feature a set of banging poems, full of wit and humour to warm your soul this October.
