Gerry Potter (once known as Chloe Poems) returns to North Beach Poetry Nights


Not to be missed!
Gerry Potter (once known as Chloe Poems) returns
to North Beach Poetry Nights
on Monday 26th March
in the Crane Bar at 9 pm.

Gerry Potter is currently touring his new book of autobiographcal performance poetry 'Planet Middle Age', follow up to the successful 'Planet Young'. A favourite son of both Manchester and his home town Liverpool, Gerry has also been wowing audiences nationally with domestic-fantastic free verse. Gerry has a reputation for putting his Scouse voice on the line, a soaring sing-song accent, strong on poetry and strong on the causes of poetry. Creator and destroyer of the infamous gingham diva Chloe Poems, Gerry's new work is very different to his alter ego, though no less passionate. Performance meets theatre meets poetry and rhythm, creating a blistering soundscape of experience and entertainment.

Poets wishing to enter the Slam on the night need 2 max. three minutes poems.
The poem for the second round must be performed without a script.
The prize is a bottle of wine and entry to the North Beach Grand Slam in December.

Door: 5/3 Euro

Info: John @ 091-593290
