Event Description

Every writer has a unique voice, but what if it could sing? Spoken word performer and poet Thabani Tshuma will explore the musicality inherent in both poetry and prose to show you how rhythm and sound can bring your words to life.
In this practical workshop, you will learn ways in which you can play with words across form, structure, genre and craft to create works that sing from page to stage and beyond. Come ready to play and explore your craft, you’ll leave with insights to create new work that shines.


You will learn:
· Poetic rhythm and musicality
· Improvisation
· Form and breaking constraints
· Voice in relation writing
· Take-home techniques

Thabani Tshuma is a multi-award-winning Zimbabwean writer and performance poet.
