Word Up is back at it and we are super excited to kick off the season with @troggled as our feature poet!
Danielle Richardson (nee Altrogge) is a queer spoken word poet, Canadian national poetry slam champion (CFSW 2015), and community organizer from Saskatoon. She currently serves as the Executive Director for Common Weal Community Arts. Richardson is an independent theatre creator, producing and writing Our Four Walls (Thigh-High Theatre, MuD Collective, 2015) and Elemental (Live Five, Embrace Theatre, MuD Collective, 2019). In 2020, Richardson, with three collaborators, published Prairie Girl Collective with Party Trick Press, which was released as an audio album with American Radio Cassette in 2021. She lives with her spouse, child, and cat in Saskatoon.
Our open mic is an opportunity for folks to gather and share appreciation for the art of spoken word. Everyone is welcome on our pressure-free stage to perform their spoken word poems in 5-minute spots. All genres, styles, and stories will be celebrated.
Open mic sign up starts at 6:30pm and we are limited to 12 spots, so come early!
