Shot from the Lip performance at Barbican Library
Shot From The Lip is a season of Spoken Word events
from 28 February - 27 April 2007 put together by a group of the
artform’s leading artists and promoters to help new and existing
fans navigate their way through this burgeoning scene. Challenging
outdated notions of what Spoken Word nights are all about, the
season reflects the exuberance and diversity of events filling
bars, clubs, theatres, galleries and dedicated poetry venues
throughout the capital. Featured artists include Patience Agbabi,
Brendan Cleary, Crisis, Kat Francois, John Hegley, Gautam Malkami,
Simon Munnery, Lemn Sissay and many more.
Raman Mundair
Wednesday 18 April, 7:30-10pm, Barbican Library, Barbican, Silk
Street EC2
Born in India and now based in the Shetland Islands, Raman
Mundair’s poems inevitably explore identity and journeys of all
kinds - cultural, political and geographical. With special guests
she presents a heady fusion of words and music.
