Performance poetry pioneers Apples and Snakes are taking over Woolwich Works for a high-octane birthday celebration—and it’s going to be absolute heat.

More Fire brings together trailblazers, some of whom laid down the blueprint for spoken word, alongside the most electric, forward-thinking poets lighting up the scene today.

Hosted by the powerhouse Yomi Sọde, expect an unmissable night of fiery lyricism, raw storytelling, and undeniable energy on stage.

Ignite your night, feed your soul. Whether you’re a long-time poetry head or looking for a live performance that actually hits different, this is performance poetry that promises profound storytelling and unmatched quality.
