The Big Word

25 January 2007
Doors 8pm, cabaret 8.30 - 11.30pm

Venue:
THE CITY CAFE
Downstairs @ The City Cafe, Blair Street, Edinburgh

Tis Burns day, and to celebrate in contrary style, The Big Word presents a completely un-Burns related cabaret featuring no haggis, tartan or indeed, neeps...


Instead, discover the wholly current lyrical talents of....
Tim Turnbull: Winner of the first ever £10,000 Arts Foundation award for performance poetry (2006) and author of "Stranded In Sub-Atomica"
Pauk Hinnrichs: Music from up and coming Edinburgh troubadour.
A F Harrold: Surreal encounters and bizarre tales from Reading's most dapper of bards...
The Beatnix Poetry Collective: Anita Govan heads up a troupe of wildly diverse new talent.
Graeme Hawley: The unstoppable newcomer - current Big Word Slam Champ & finalist at the Three Nations Slam @ The Bristol Old Vic (2006)

Hosted by Jenny Lindsay, winner of the Three Nations Slam 2006, Big Word co-ordinator, writer, poet, musician, charlatan: She doesn't suffer for her art...she just suffers.
