Wordcraft Performance Poetry Workshop

Rapunzel Wizard

Saturday 5 May 2007
11am

The Lemon Tree [Venue 6]

Admission Free


Aberdeen Slam Champion Rapunzel Wizard will explore the differences between page and performance poetry. The workshop will include time to write a short performance piece and an opportunity to recite it using techniques learnt during the workshop. Please bring a couple of lines or ideas for a poem that you wish to work on.

Rapunzel Wizard

Rapunzel Wizard performs comic poems with a political edge. This has led to him being called The Beast from Brighton, which was a good description until he moved to Aberdeen.
