Spoken Word Paris: juillet 2008

Spoken Word is lying on a beach somewhere, dangling its toes in the turquoise sea until September.

It may return to Paris at short notice for excursions to Culture Rapide/Cabaret Populaire at http://www.culturerapide.com/index2

I founded and run SpokenWord because it's fun. And sometimes transcendent. Because I love words and spoken poetry. Paris is a beautiful backwater where life is slower than New York or London, it gives breathing space, distance from the anglo metropoles that supports writing. & the English-speaking community here is just the right size to come together and do something, to provide a home/platform for, to nurture and be nourished by, our/your poetry, stories and songs. A space in which to create something fun, and sometimes sublime. - David
