FreeVerse! is the ultimate duel between the fine traditions of performance and page poetry. Each event, curated & emceed by Ghostboy, pairs an established page poet with a spoken word artist as they share their work back and forth, poem for poem. Part chat show / part performance bout / all poetry.
The third bout features the creator of the Melbourne Poetry Map and mistress of the spoken word swoon, Eleanor Jackson VS Thomas Shapcott and Anne Elder Prize winning poet Rosanna Licari.
Pens down. Ink will be shed…
