Allographic has three forms of live event – the open-hearted open mic with featured guests every last Sunday of the month; Allographic presents..., a loose series of events with bigger names from the spoken word scene, and a burgeoning set of workshops for aspirant poets, storytellers, and other writers and performers.

So, what’s Allographic Open Mic then? It’s a simple concept really – a lyrical invasion of a lovely bar; a stage, a microphone, a bunch of lovely people, and some words.

Step up to the open mic or enjoy the talent on display. Pretty much anything goes, as long as you respect the audience and the ethos of the evening. Bring your poems, stories, dramatic monologues (or duologues!), improv, hip hop, and anything else that fits the bill of spoken word. 

This month's guest artist will be Claire Trévien.
