Poetry & Lyrics Festival
T01731792124
An annual festival from curators Poet in the City in collaboration with Kings Place and artist management agency Rainbow City. From the producers of the hit concert series ?West End Switched Off' comes a new concert. ?MUSICALS unsung' brings you songs from the golden age of Hollywood screen, to the newest Broadway shows, that have not made it to the final cut. From the earliest moments people have sought to express themselves in song, told stories and mapped histories through poetry, lyrics and melody. But where do the lines cross between poem and lyric? Poetry & Lyrics will break down the boundaries between poetry and music to celebrate incredible wordsmiths across genres and show that poetry is an art form made for performance. In a time where poetry is sometimes criticised for its inability to succeed on stage, the festival will highlight how music, poetry and song have been joined throughout history and bring together music and poetry fans as one.
