Saturday 10th July, Andre Burke, Andre de Bassendean + Andrew Shillam (NSW) + open-mike! on Zoom and the Moon

This Saturday 10th July 2pm-4pm we have wonderful poets Andrew Burke + Andre de Bassendean + Andrew Shillam (NSW) + open-mike at the Moon Café and on Zoom.

We are back at the Moon Café - folk will have to QR code in or sign in, and people will have to wear a mask unless eating or drinking.  You can QR table order or order at bar as normal.  There is a limit of 2 per square metre which means no more than 50 in the back room, and we have operated like that for a good 6 months so no need to worry really.

Nathan Toy + Maurice Corlett (NSW) + open-mike, by Zoom only

This Saturday 3rd July 2pm-4pm we have wonderful poets Nathan Toy + Maurice Corlett (NSW) + open-mike on Zoom.

We will NOT be at the Moon Cafe. 

Nathan Toy grew up in Brisbane City, moving to Western Australia when he was a teenager.

Nathan’s poetry comes from a place of pain, human pain, pain that we have either experienced already or will experience soon.  Nathan hopes his poetry whispers softly to the still-sleeping darkness within you, and soothes it with a reminder: you are not alone.
