!! NEW TEMPORARY VENUE - Priory Visitor Centre !!
** You DON'T need a ticket to attend or read. **
Recommended arrival time: 7.30PM or a bit earlier. Gig starts 8PM.
Fire & Dust is a monthly poetry open mic event. All welcome - page poets, performance poets, slammers, rappers, spoken word artists, and anyone happy to listen to some poetry. Bring poems, bring friends, or just bring yourself along for a listen!
Open mic slots available. For a guaranteed slot: register for a ticket. Alternatively, request to sign up on the night. Slots are limited to 3 minutes (a few extended slots may be available on request.)
OPEN MIC SYSTEM: A few open mic tickets are available to reserve on Eventbrite; the other slots are for sign-up on the night. Priority given to poets who didn't get to read last month. If you read last month and want to read again, your name will go into the tub for random draw to fill empty slots. Most poets WILL get to read, but sometimes the list is just too busy to fit everyone in!

HEADLINE POET: M.L. WALSH
M. L. WALSH is a performance poet specializing in comic absurdism and the construction of narrative through voice and characterisation. Since finding her form in the poetic monologue, she has experimented with the translation of performance poetry from stage to page, and how theatrical technique (and its removal) can modify a text. Her debut collection 'My Dog Has Never Read This' was released in March 2025 with Verve Poetry Press.

There will be a jar for donations on the night. Alternatively, you can donate online to help Fire & Dust gigs keep going:
