Spoken Word

Whack the factor 50 on and join Spork! for a glorious Summer Special in Rougemont Gardens for a sun-drenched hour of sumptuous spoken-word, poetry, comedy & live music.

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!

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.

Join Spork! this Halloween for another spectacular & spooky spoken-word event, featuring the incredible, award-winning poet Ella Frears. Plus 6 famous faces brought back to life in a “Dead Poets Slam.” All hosted by the gruesome twosome that is Edward Tripp & Chris White.

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.
