Bex's September Spoken Word Wrap Up
Updated: Sep 6, 2022
Another August has been and gone! We saw a plethora of amazing Spoken Word shows at this year's Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
Being the lucky sausage I am, I work with I Am Loud Productions at Loud Poets: Best of Fringe. We hosted a whole bunch of spoken word performers - with over 65 performers throughout our 20 shows. But the Fringe is over, and doesn't need to be considered for at least another month or two - in the meantime, I've collected a list of (almost) 100 spoken word events taking place across the UK in September 2022!
