Words & Verses Special Edition

getonthesoapbox presents a National Poetry Day 2024 special edition of 'Words & Verses', our regular free entry spoken word open mic in Ipswich. Held at The Steamboat, 7-10pm, this events welcomes all kinds of spoken word, from poetry to rap, comedy to storytelling.

Hosted by Amy Wragg, Words & Verses is a friendly, fun and unapologetically honest event that celebrates words & language in all its glorious shapes. We equally welcome covers & originals. Bring a favourite poem to share, or something you've written yourself. No snobbery here.

W&V is the most beautiful event in the region. Always adorned by unique handmade artwork made from recycled materials, and glittering with tons of fairy lights. To book a spot (5-10mins each) either turn-up at the event on the day and sign-up on the sheet, or email to reserve in advance. amy@getonthesoapbox.co.uk
