Cosmic Kitchen is excited to announce the debut of Plymouth’s newest spoken word event: Cosmic Rhymes!
Taking place within the atmospheric interior of the restaurant, Cosmic Rhymes is an opportunity both for budding writers to come and share their work on our open mic, and for fans of poetry and spoken word to enjoy some of that live poetry goodness that has been missing from our lives for far too long.
Doors will open from 8pm, and the poetry will kick off at half past. The night will consist of two 25-minute open mic sections, interceded by a ten-minute break, and followed by a headline set from our guest performer for the evening.
The entertainment will end at around 10:30pm. Tickets will be available via Fatsoma or on the door (cash only), at £5/£4 with an NUS card.
For our second event, our guest performer is none other that CHRIS WHITE!
If you would like to perform at Cosmic Rhymes, there will be ten 5-minute slots up for grabs. Sign-up will be on the door, and the evening’s performers will be selected randomly via a ‘names-out-of-a-hat’ system.
At Cosmic Rhymes, we love and appreciate all who choose to give up five minutes of their time to entertain us with their words. In order to keep the evening moving however, we ask our open mic-ers to stick to their five-minute slots. If you do start to run over, there will be a ten-second grace period, followed by a gentle musical reminder to bring your performance to a close.
