Anonymous Readings

The heart of this event is creating a space for writing that feels a little too vulnerable, strange or personal for a typical open mic.

Bring a piece of writing you'd like to share. It could be a poem, song lyrics, story, letter or journal entry that you've wanted to share but haven't found the right space to share it.

Maybe it's deeply personal. Maybe it's dark, funny, messy, intense or even embarrassing (bonus points for this one - lol)
This is a space where the focus is on honesty.

When you arrive, you'll place your writing into a hat. Everyone will draw a piece at random and read someone else's work aloud. Your words get to be heard without the pressure of standing up and claiming them as your own.

You can remain anonymous for the entire event or we can reveal ourselves afterwards if we like!

This is a chance for your words to be heard without any pressure of performing!

This is a shared experience rather than a performance, so I'd love everyone who comes to participate. The idea is that we're all readers. writers and supporters of one another.

I am currently looking for a cosy, private, indoor space, but until then we'll do it at the park!
