*COMING UP AT PERTH POETRY CLUB*
*6 Mar: TOMAS FORD HIMSELF!*
On 6 March Perth Poetry Club, on behalf of the strange sad child in us all,
is very excited (very, very, very excited) to present the unique, the
disturbing, the moving, the beautifully tatty, the terrifying... Tomás Ford!
fresh from the Astor Theatre and the Future Music Festival, doing one of his
rare spoken word sets.
Tomás's poetry is predominantly free verse, exploring portraits of paranoia
in suburban Australia and sometimes crossing over with his musical practice
to include dissections of the audience/performer relationship. For this show
he will be performing several current works in progress along with some of
his greatest spoken word hits.
*13 Mar: KAITLYN WEST*
KAITLYN WEST (aka Plyley) is a beautiful young poet with a beautiful old
spirit. As well as boys, she writes about her family and about her
experiences in different landscapes. Her poetry has been published in
dotdotdash and AustralianReader.com. She also edits UWA’s Pelican magazine.
