An institution of the London spoken word scene, Jawdance brings you acclaimed feature acts alongside up-and-coming artists in poetry and music.

October’s headliner is the brilliant Belinda Zhawi! Plus we’ll have feature sets from Tyrone Lewis and Tanaka Fuego.

The notorious Jawdance open mic is for poets, part-time poets, partial-to-an-open-mic poets, or even I’ve-written-what-I-think-is-a-poem-but-I’m-not-a-poet poets… this is your chance to own the stage alongside some of the biggest names in spoken word. Sign-up on the night from 7pm, if you’re drawn to perform you can get in free next time.
