Ottawa’s own Arc Poetry Magazine celebrates the launch of their crackling new Spoken Word issue. Guest-edited by Banff Centre’s Director of Spoken Word Tanya Evanson, and bulging with contributions from top-shelf performers across the country, the new Arc brings serious attention to the vibrant discipline. Joining Tanya onstage will be Montreal’s Cat Kidd, Toronto’s Ian Keteku and Ottawa’s own Kevin Matthews.
She calls her art ‘spoken world’. There isn’t a better description for Evanson’s groovy tales, fluidly rapped in Spanish, Arabic, French and English.
