Poetry in the Art Bar - hosted by Milton Balgonie

Thursday 24 June, Art Bar, Perth Rd, 8:30pm

Five of the Best
A night of poetry hosted by slam champ Milton Balgoni


If you thought poetry was for the meek then think again. When the Scotsman newspaper describes a performer as a "Ranting, raving, spluttering cross between Rabbie Burns, Elvis & the Tasmanian devil” and then adds the tag “a must see act!"  You know you are in for a treat. Thus Milton Balgoni’s audience have been warned…
 
Join Milton and a bunch of talented guests for an evening of performance and stand up poetry that moves from raucously side-splitting to tender and moving in the turn of a phrase. Expect highly entertaining strong language from the start.
 
With guest performers:

KID CANDLE: aka Dundee Street poet Kevin McCabe and Vince Piggott
JENNY LINDSAY: Popular performer, 3 nations slam champ and host of Edinburgh’s “Is This Poetry?” cabaret
ROB CAIRNS: Glasgow's finest stand-up poet and multi slam champ. Creator of Severe Malcolm - the Byre’s Road Hard Man
KEVIN CADWALLENDER: multi-talented poet and writer; Scottish editor of Red Squirrel Press and mean Dalek impersonator
