Out Of Your Head

OOYH! is a spoken word event in Newcastle for those of us who think too much and share too little

Out of Your Head (OOYH) is a monthly, non-competitive poetry night based in Newcastle Upon Tyne. It is an event for those of us who think too much and share too little. OOYH wants to liven up the North-East performance scene for anyone wishing to express themselves in a creative way; providing a new and fascinating experience every month with a new theme. The pandemic and austerity has led to the

decimation of the arts scene and a barren future for young and/or unestablished creative performers. OOYH wants to provide a stage for people from all backgrounds to share their hopes, their thoughts and their agony in a nurturing environment. Thoughts can become realities when they’re expressed to an audience who are primed to hear you out.
