Apples and Snakes presents THE SOUL CELLAR SLAM (SOUTHAMPTON VS BOURNEMOUTH)

The Soul Cellar in Southampton will see the return bout of the poetry slam between Southampton and Bournemouth. In the first match in April in Bournemouth, the team of Freeway Poets from The Winchester, came out on top, with Bournemouth’s Keli-Anne B taking individual honours by a mere 1 point. This time the Southampton team are out for revenge on home soil…Some of the finest tongue twisters, lyric spitters, smouldering sonneteers and obscure ode-ists from Southampton and Bournemouth’s burgeoning spoken word scenes will be donning their glad rags to take to the stage in a high-stakes poetry extravaganza during which the audience are encouraged to cheer and whoop for their favourite bards. Guest feature poet: Vanessa Kisuule
