Away with words
October 2019 Portsmouth Poetry launch new monthly spoken word event in partnership with Portsmouth Guildhall Studio
Performing in a cabaret setting with bar, the launch of "Away With Words" began with Robyn Bolam, Hampshire Poet Laureate 2018; followed by singer - songwriter Lucy May Betram and a final set from Portsmouth's own Poet Laureate Sam Cox accompanied by James Tattington. [Emily Priest was unwell]
The November set featured neuro-diverse performers with local stand-up comic Joe Wells and artist and writer Jon Adams

The last Away With Words gig of 2019 just before Christmas was played to a small but appreciative audience and featured season readings from Virginia Woolf's "Orlando", the moving account of her last day with the poet Edward Thomas by his wife Helen from "Under Storms Wings" and a cast performance/reading of Dylan Thomas's "A Child's Christmas In Wales" plus traditional Christmas songs
