The Manchester leg of the North By North West Poetry Tour, which comprises over eighty poets collaborating to produce over sixty collaborative works for performance over six nights in January and February 2017.

The collaborative works are commissioned for each event. Around sixteen poets local to Manchester will perform alongside a core group of six touring poets. The tour aims to strengthen regional links between poets, arts organisations and audiences, as well as giving a new platform for some of the regions more overlooked innovative poets.

Free admission. The full line-up is here. Here’s a reading by the organisers in Edinburgh and, below that, a poster for the forthcoming tour.
