Open Mic Event

Contact: wordsontap@email.com

The penultimate Words on Tap will take place on Halloween, and we are delighted to welcome two outstanding York-based poets, Oz Hardwick and Steve Nash, who will no doubt give us a literary yet ghoulish performance. This month's event will be the last chance to buy one of the nine remaining tickets to see/hear Paul Farley on Nov 28th at WoT, and there will also be a raffle, featuring prizes concocted in Matthew Hedley Stoppard's laboratory. Lastly, the open-mic slots will be extended to four, possibly five, minutes as this will be the last chance to take part in the usual WoT format. Hope to see you at the Chemic Tavern, Woodhouse, Friday Oct 31st, 7.30pm, adm FREE, Fancy dress optional. More info below.

Steve Nash is a writer, lecturer, poetry editor, and terrible musician based in Yorkshire. His first collection, Taking the Long Way Home, published by Stairwell Books, has been called ‘The work of a rare artist with a fire in his head,’ and ‘an important addition to poetry in the English language’. Steve recently won the Saboteur Award for Performer of the Year, winning from a shortlist that included Kate Tempest and Hollie McNish. Steve lives on a diet of Guinness and scotch eggs and suspects his guinea pigs are plotting against him. You can follow him @stevenashyork.

Oz Hardwick is a York-based writer, photographer and occasional musician. Widely published in journals, anthologies and other media, Oz’s fifth poetry collection, The Ringmaster’s Apprentice, will be published by Valley Press on 31st October 2014 and is the Poetry Kit’s ‘Book of the Month.’ Oz has performed his work, both solo and in collaboration with a variety of writers and musicians, in Europe, the USA, and throughout the UK. By day, Oz is Professor of English and Programme Leader for English and Writing at Leeds Trinity University. His only regret is that he is not Belgian.
