Spoken Word

A monthly evening of have-a-go magic, hosted by spoken word artist and pandemic Bard of Exeter Tim King.

Want to vocalise your bare bones vision? Give it a try! Need to stand up and show without a ticketed audience? Go for it! Maybe you would like to hear people read your script out loud? Just ask! New to this and have a curiosity about making something from scratch? Start here!

Join Spork! this December for our 5th annual Christmas Bash, featuring a stockingful of spoken-word talent, some top-notch poets, a brass band, a drag queen & a partridge in a pear tree!!

Mathematician-turned-World-Slam-Champion Harry Baker turns 10,000 days old, celebrating numbers, words and life itself. He’s got 99 problems but maths ain’t one.

A bunch of local theatre makers, comedians, dancers, musicians, actors and clowns are going to try some new things – and you’re invited to experience it.

12 poets will battle it out across 3 rounds of fierce but friendly competition. With feature slots from previous City Slam winner and stand-up poet Edward Tripp, as well as the brilliant published poet Bryony Littlefair (“Fresh, unexpected, surprising”” – Pascale Petite,) and an electric headline set from comedian, author, popular science endorser and now poet Robin Ince.

World Poetry Slam Champion Harry Baker is back and more full of wonder than ever. Wonderful 2.0 will make you cry with laughter, laugh through tears, or dream scenario both.
