North Beach Poetry Nights

THE NEXT North Beach Poetry Nights Slam takes place this Monday at 9pm in The Crane Bar, Sea Road, and the guest poet will be Dave Lordan.

Dave Lordan is a powerful and provocative performer, whose poetry is often politically charged. His collection The Boy In The Ring (Salmon, 2007 ) won the Strong Award for best first collection by an Irish writer. His second volume Invitation To A Sacrifice (Salmon, 2010 ), was described by The Irish Times as “an act of cultural resistance, as brilliant on the page as it must surely be in performance”.

Poets wishing to enter the Slam should have two three minute poems. The poem for the second round must be performed without a script. Admission is €5/3.
