Step into an evening of spoken word, storytelling and poetic reflection as a selection of poets respond to the theme of shared history. Inspired by the Whitworth’s ABC Wax Archive this event invites audiences to open themselves up to the possibilities of storytelling and narrative in the construction of truth. Join us as we immerse ourselves in the reimagining of legacy, through the perspective of poetry.
