HOSTED BY:
Ben Mellor
Hit the Ode brings the most exciting poets from the region, the country and the world to the heart of Manchester. It features three guest acts: one from the North West, one from elsewhere in the UK, and one international guest.
We have poems. Poems which crunch when you bite into them; poems you’ve been meaning to call for ages; poems buzzing like wires strung between pylons.
Good poems. Come and get them.
