A Lovely Word featuring Elle Dillon-Reams

A Lovely Word is back, downstairs at the Everyman on the first Thursday of every month.

A Lovely Word is Liverpool’s most eclectic poetry night, featuring two halves of open mic poets, and a headliner beginning the first half. Hosted by Alex Ferguson, this free event is a fun, relaxed and friendly evening of performance poetry.
