- **Event Name**: 42Worcester - 15th Birthday! - March 31st 2026  
- **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 31 Mar, 2026 at 07:15 pm – Tue, 31 Mar, 2026 at 09:45 pm (+01:00)
- **Event Description**: 42Worcester is the Worcestershire 'alternative genre' monthly Spoken Word event covering gothic, horror, sci-fi and fantasy. It is held on the last Tuesday of every month— the online section opens at 7.15pm for a 7.30pm start. 

42Worcester is a hybrid event. Our venue is the wonderful Script Haven, 104 High Street, Worcester - not far from the Cathedral - the cafe/bookshop/Spoken Word Hub in a historic building where Charles Dickens once stayed . . .  If you can't get there in person, we are also on Zoom, for both audience members and performers.

We are inclusive, diverse and friendly - we have published authors performing, and we also have writers just starting out and building up confidence - everybody is welcome (just respect your fellow performers!)

The Zoom invitation / link will appear here on the day.

We issue a prompt for most months of the year and while pieces that reflect the prompt are preferred, we understand that not everyone will have a piece that ‘fits’. That doesn't matter - we want to hear what you write! 

March is a very special month . . . The first 42 was held in the Cellar Bar under the Worcester Arts Workshop on March 24th 2011 - since then we have had a 42 every month for the past 15 years. There are very few Spoken Word events that have lasted this long. . . and we have never had to cancel a 42 - there was a January when the weather was so cold and the pavements were so icy that only a few of us in stout boots could get to the venue, but three cold people sitting around a table and reading our stories to each other made it a memorable 42, and in 2020 the Pandemic and the Lockdown happened in March, a week before our Birthday, but enough of us had got the hang of Zoom, so we still had an extraordinary online 42 . . . This is the only Spoken Word night for Gothic Horror, SF, Fantasy, Alternative Genre, Weird Stuff in the UK (possibly in the whole world!)  . . . It's a friendly and very inclusive night - everybody is welcome! 

And our theme for our 15th Birthday in March is 'The Best Party Ever' . . . Enjoy!
