Poeting in Seaford

February 16 @ 19:00 - 22:00

The Wellington, Seaford

Janine returns to Seaford on the East Sussex coast.

A word from the organisers in Seaford:

A warm welcome awaits you at the Wellington Hotel for another of our popular Open Mic Poetry sessions. All are welcome to read or perform their poetry or simply relax and enjoy the atmosphere as our brilliant poets spin their wondrous webs of words.

Our guest poet this evening will be the sensational performance poet Janine Booth.

Host of the much-missed Spoaken Word Lewes, Janine Booth returns to East Sussex with poems serious and funny, formal and messy, long and short, always engaging. Janine’s poems have been widely published in journals and anthologies, as well as in several books of her own.

Information and tickets here.
