SpeakUP Showcase 2023

  • FRINGE COMMON ROOMS, Victorian Trade Hall 2 Lygon Street Carlton, VIC, 3053 Australia (map)

Join us for an epic spoken word show presenting 15 artists as they graduate from a 12-week spoken word course with Fleassy Malay. This event is the great graduation night and epic showcase of 12-weeks of work, courage, and creativity.

Ticket cost is on a "pay as you can" sliding scale at $10, $15, $20, and $30.

The performers range from beginners taking their first steps onto the stage, to seasoned performers who have deepened and honed their craft. Let us take you on a journey of reclaiming power, sensuality, intrigue, discovery, and lived-experience as each of the students brings to the stage a piece they have crafted especially for the night.
