Speak Easy Sheffield

27/11/2013

Who else is looking forward to tonight? :D https://www.facebook.com/events/549928505083809/

Every last* Tuesday of the month we aim to entertain through the wonderful mediums of performance poetry, short stories, comedy, songs and nostalgic anecdotes. Most of the time you will laugh, other times you may cry and sometimes we simply give you food for thought.

Thank you to everyone who attended tonight. It was a fun night, full to the brim with some great poets, some particularly intense improv...and Clive ;)

The new group page will be up and running soon, photos and everything!

The pen falls, the story lives.

"Writers! Poets! Singers! I am looking for people to take part (or just attend) Scribble on 20th June @ The Red Deer Pub (7-9pm) and/or Crosspool Festival Scribble on 1st July @ St Columba's Church, Crosspool (7-9pm). Both events are completely and utterly 100% free to attend! Tell your friends, your relatives, your neighbours, but don't tell random strangers, unless they like spoken word...or if they offer you sweets, tell them if they offer you sweets...

We're having trouble sorting out a venue for the next two months fellows and fellowettes. Bear with us. We'll report back ASAP!

Hi everyone.

I am very sorry to have to bring bad news, but after a phone call a bit earlier today from John, I have to inform you all that tonight's Speak Easy is cancelled.

John was only told about this at 11am, and I was at uni and couldn't post - I wish we could have let you all know sooner! In fact we're all gutted and wish this wasn't the case at all, but the Hubs was double booked and they've asked us to postpone/cancel our event.

We will - all being well - be back at the end of May, so hopefully we'll see you there.
Again, we can't apologise enough for this :(

Kate (and Adam, Sam and John)

Hey Everyone,

I'd just like to take a moment to thank Kate, Adam and John for welcoming me to the Speak Easy team. I'm really looking forward to the events that are currently being planned for this year and watching more of all of your captivating performances.

Grab a look at Donna Jones Mbe's immense and strongly confrontational poetry. Very fearless pieces which compel and stun, from start to finish. As a personal citation, the first one is my favourite :D

Two poems from: The Thick and Thin of it, a first collection of poetry by Donna Jones MBE. Available to buy in paperback from 1st December 2012 (introductory...
