Helsinki Poetry Connection Goes Puisto

  • 15. 07. 202424. 07. 2024

Helsinki Poetry Connections Open Mic -summer club HPC Goes Puisto keeps on giving in it’s all summerly glory. We’ll be meeting in Käpylän lippakiska on sunday 28 July at 6 p.m.!

We are about to see poetry’s ever flourishing creativity in it’s full, glorious multitudes. Concept is that we sit in a park in good company and warmly sunny atmosphere, listening to poetry and getting inspired by it.

Afternoon starts with warm-up performers, such as the glorious Elmy Helmos and Jamie Simone. After that comes the main performers, being you, get the stage for use, to interpret your self-written poems. Pretty much everything that you can call poetry with a straight face is allowed, as long as you keep your trousers on, consider the safer space, and keep your performances under four minutes.

HPC-GP is hosted and produced by Jussi Kiova and Timo Nikkilä. You are warmly welcome!

Raincheck!
