This in one of our bi-monthly events with a Feature Artist and 8 open mic spots. Mother Tongue is a place for Passionate, Powerful, Vulnerable and Honest performance; it stands aside from most Spoken Word events in its depth and authenticity.

Our Poetry and Spoken Word events are (usually) held on the second Saturday of the month at 1 p.m., with a Poetry Writing Workshop running from 12 pm to 1 pm for anyone interested.

Please also note the location: Vespertine Gardens at 6 Cadle St, Dandenong, 3175. This location is weather-dependent, so check your emails / the Facebook event and so on, closer to the day and if it looks like it might rain significantly.

Hello everyone, third Monday of the month is Be Fearless Poetry night!

Why call a gig Be Fearless? It's because I want to present performers whose work the audience would otherwise not experience or for them to see more of. To inspire and expose poets to art or poetic performances they haven't seen before.

There will be open mic of course, plus the famous hospitality of Red Betty!

Hosted by MC Danksta Downunder, the format is OPEN MIC for all to join!

No-one knows what will happen on the night! All languages are welcome here. 100% survival rate for first-time performers guaranteed. Spoken Word @ Bar Oussou has a long history within the Melbourne poetry scene - come and join in every Tuesday
