Northern Poets Collective
They offer a compelling mix of poetry, performance and conversation, exploring what on earth they mean when they describe themselves as ‘northern’. And, indeed, as ‘poets’. They sit at a crossroads, meshing the personal and political, critical and creative, using poetry to provoke, to resist – and to help us fall in love again, with others, with ourselves, with the natural world.
Meet them for their world premier as a collective!
