You can call it rapping, or poetry, slamming or ranting – it’s all performing the spoken word.
In the run up to Beeston Festival Phil Pearce and Kevin Philips are running free weekly workshops, starting on Tuesday 8 May, 6-7pm at City Evangelical Church on Cemetery Road.
During the ten week course you’ll learn all you need to write and perform your own work.
There’s no pressure, but there is the opportunity to perform on the spoken word stage at Beeston Festival on Saturday 14 July.

“You don’t have to have any previous experience, just come along and give it a go” commented Phil. “We’ll take care of you, we’ll make sure you know what you’re doing.”
Sign up on Facebook or just come along on Tuesday.
