POETRY
Monologues and poems are a feature of this club.
They add humour, pathos, sincerity and are often thought provoking.
Although outnumbered by the Singers and Musicians, these practitioners are an essential aspect of the atmosphere at this excellent folk club.
Topics are varied and prior to reciting, short explanations
of what to expect are usually given by each performer.
Some of the regular performers are: -
ERIC CRAVEN
You can find Eric and his poems at -
https://www.ericscraven.com/about-eric
NB: His website is well worth a 'look see'.
Other poets are welcome to send their own works to Eric to appear on his website.
CAROL WARBURTON
