Burton Street announces a regular new weekly event. – Poems, Prose and Pints

Starting Tuesday 4th September , Burton Street is going to host a weekly " Poem, Prose and Pints" Open Mic night - aimed at Creative Writers who want a platform to perform their own writings or favourite written pieces in like -minded company.

We have hosted a few events over the years as part of the ‘off the Shelf’ Festival and these have always been well attended and enjoyed by those who participated. However, it will be clear to all that the opportunities for regular readings of creative work in Sheffield are few and far between.

Well , Burton Street wants to be different. We want to offer a regular venue that celebrates creativity not just 'tolerates it'. So, if you are a creative writer - come and perform your work at Burton Street, if you enjoy listening to the spoken work , come along and have a good night.
