The Art of Poetry - Live stream (REPLAY)
- 10 years ago
Our season of live broadcasts continues with The Art of Poetry brought to you by Roundhouse Digital Productions.
Poet and writer Dean Atta and illustrator Ben Connors come together for an evening of charged spoken word and live art.
Mixing spoken word performance from Dean’s critically acclaimed debut poetry collection, I Am Nobody’s Nigger together with brand new work alongside live illustrations that lift the words from the page and animate the stage – this is not poetry as you know it.
"Dean’s poetry is as honest as truth itself. He follows no trend; he seeks no favours … Beyond black, beyond white, beyond straight, beyond gay, so I say. You will be uplifted."
Benjamin Zephaniah
