Jawdance is London’s biggest poetry night featuring some of the best names from the Spoken Word scene. Taking place every third Wednesday of the month at Rich Mix, it’s a monthly highlight for many poetry and Spoken Word enthusiasts.

Jawdance is on a short Summer break for August but we will be back on Wednesday 18 September.

Jawdance has previously welcomed poetic luminaries including Kat Francois, Yomi Sode, Belinda Zhawi, Toby Campion and many more fantastic names to its stage. Featuring a house band to set the tone, we also welcome members of the audience to perform through our Open Mic opportunity. Pop your name in the hat at the beginning of the evening and if you’re lucky, then your name could be drawn at random to perform! Everyone is welcome to add their name to the hat and we highly recommend you give it a go.

Jawdance is a supportive environment and welcomes first-timers and those who are well-seasoned. Where spoken word meets the open mic, come along to the warmest poetry gig in London.
