    Spoken word pamphlet publisher Stewed Rhubarb has been a firm favourite of Scotland’s poetry scene since its inception almost a decade ago. Since its first award-winning publication, The Glassblower Dances by Rachel McCrum, it has continued to publish the best and brightest spoken word, bringing only the freshest and most innovative work to its audiences.

    This event brings together some of the sizzling talents published by Stewed Rhubarb in recent years. In a quick-fire hour of poetry, you can expect appearances from Colin Bramwell, Ellen Renton, Tracey S. Rosenberg, Bibi June, Henry Bell and Ross McCleary. Together, we will abolish prisons, take our Highland Citizenship tests, and spend every minute of the hour endorsing poetry in its purest Stewed Rhubarb form.
