Welcome to our autumn edition of Forspoken! A St Andrews poetry night curated and co-hosted by local poets Doroti Polgar & Mike Yuill.

Welcome to the autumn edition of Forspoken Poetry and Open Mic Night, hosted in Aikman's Bar and Bistro!

The event will run in two halves where we will have our feature poets performing during the first hour, then we will have a break, followed by our open mic segment in the second half.

Our three wonderful feature poets this month are:

James Appleby: @interpretmagazine (https://www.instagram.com/interpretmagazine/)

Siying Wu: @oldricebone (https://www.instagram.com/oldricebone/)

Gabrielle Tse: @gabrielletse (https://www.instagram.com/gabrielletse/)

The night will run on the 25th of October and will run from 6.30-9 PM, which should allow for plenty of time for anyone travelling from a farther distance to get back to the bus and/or Leuchars train station on time.

If you are getting into St Andrews from Leuchars station, there is a bus into town every 15 minutes, which takes a 10-15 minute journey. Please note this time our show is taking place on a Sunday, when considering getting here by public transport, which means buses may be less consistent.

If you would like to sign up for one of our open mic slots, sign ups will be open until Sunday 18th of October, after this date we will select our open micers through random selection depending on if we have too many, we are hoping to have 8 slots available.

Each open mic slot will be five minutes long.

Everyone should be informed on the 19th of October, if they are going to be on the list for the night or not, there may be slots available on the night depending on the number of advance sign-ups.
