Join in!
Everyone is welcome to attend and to perform! Read your own work or listen to others. Any subject, any style, any form.
Share your own work and read an extract from your new script, non-fiction essay, short story or children’s story, or perform a poem / spoken word piece.
Not ready to read your own work yet? The Between the Lines City Lit Anthology of Creative Writing will be available for those who would like to practice their speaking skills by reading aloud the work of others. You're also welcome to bring along read a piece from a favourite writer.
