Dear Listener

We’ll be bouncing back to —at their sparkly new home—on April 16 and we actually still have open mic spots available! If you fancy throwing some words around with us (go on, you know you want to) drop an email to [email protected] to get your name down 🤍

Please note: Script Haven is moving! By the time this event rolls around, our favourite bookshop will be in their new home at 5 Crown Passage, Broad Street, Worcester. Please head there for the April open mic.

We’re bouncing back, babes, and this time we’re bringing in the glorious Catherine Redford as our headliner on April 16.

Catherine Redford’s poetry has been published in Magma (as Selected Poet), Under the Radar, and Propel. She is an editor at Dust Poetry and a Nine Arches Press Dynamo Poet. Her Forward-nominated debut collection, ‘The Way the Water Held Me’ was published by The Emma Press in March 2026.

We’ve got our usual open mic spots of 5 minutes apiece that are available to book NOW! Drop a line to [email protected] to get your name down. We want you and your best words right on that stage with us this April.

Entry is £3 on the door for this event for all-you-can-eat poetry # # #

A lovely evening to chase the January rain away, with new voices welcomed and favourites enjoyed. A varied and refreshing open mic first half followed by a strong and wonderful headliner.

We’ll see you all again next month 💞
