Teen Angst is an open mic comedic reading series where everyday people read from their embarrassing old journals, poems, songs, essays (and more), in front of an audience.
Part stand-up comedy, part poetry reading, part karaoke (in the way you go to watch people embarrass themselves). The night started in Canada in 2000 to launch the website http://www.TeenAngstPoetry.com - Teen Angst has since gone on to publish an anthology Teen Angst: A Celebration of REALLY BAD Poetry (St. Martin's Press, 2005), performed at the LATITUDE FESTIVAL (UK), BUMBERSHOOT (Seattle), THE KGB BAR (New York City), THE INTERNATIONAL HIGH PERFORMANCE RODEO (Calgary) and at London's BOOK CLUB BOUTIQUE.
Hosted by Sara Bynoe, creator of Teen Angst and Michelle Madsen, founder of the London arm of the Hammer and Tongue Poetry Slam.
PLUS ...weird and wonderful foodstuffs and drinkables to plant you firmly back in the heady days of your adolescence.
