Utrecht has only one international literary podium, and that is wordsinhere's Salon des Mots.
On this stage writers from all over the world get up to perform along the side of local artists and musicians.
Upcoming show: Sunday, 28 September
8pm, free entry
Salon des Mots is ready for another awesome season of poetry and music from all over the globe. Brought to you by wordsinhere, Salon des Mots is where international poets step up with the Dutch to perform on one cross cultural stage. Performing for this show are Prue Duggan (Aus) who is a stage diva and word charmer, Marijke Arrietta (NL) whose poetry fits somewhere between the pavement and the clouds. A very gifted poet Jennifer Arcuni (USA), she can make words shine neon of the page and on the stage. And singer songwriter Lily Kiara (NL) her poetic lyrics and tantalising voice is impossible to resist. Emceed by Anna Arov (Rus/Can).
