Spoken Word, Poetry

Loud Poets


with Tyrone Lewis, Demi Anter, Jo Hunter and Michael Mullen

(Fri 16 June: 7:30pm)

Don’t miss the next fantastic show from Scotland’s best spoken word night! From laugh-out-loud funny, through the wonderfully surreal, to the thoughtful and emotional – Loud Poets continue to prove that Spoken Word has something for everyone.

Tyrone Lewis is a champion of multiple poetry slams and author of debut collection Blackish. Tyrone is the founder of Process Production as well as its monthly spoken word night Process and was one of the inaugural Albany Associate Artists. As well as performing, Tyrone is known for hosting, producing and featuring at many spoken word nights across the UK.

Demi Anter is a poet and actor originally from California, now based in London after years in Berlin. She has toured extensively as a spoken word artist including appearances at Glastonbury Festival and her written work has been broadcast on BBC Radio. Her debut poetry collection Small Machine has been called “tender, visceral, beautifully vulnerable,” by Musa Okwonga and "strikingly luminous and soothing,” by NYT best-selling-author Chanel Miller.

Jo Hunter is an Edinburgh-based writer, theatre-maker and performance poet. Their work explores the queer experience and gender anarchy, as well as highlighting the joy and freedom that comes with both of those things. Jo's debut poetry pamphlet Flustercuck will be released in early June 2023.

Michael Mullen is a spoken word artist from Glasgow. Writing in both Scots and English, they were the recent co-winner of the Edwin Morgan Poetry Award and have performed in various places up and down the country.
