TOAST is poetry, but not as you know it. Norfolk’s biggest poetry night returns to the Festival Speak Easy for three days of poetry, spoken word, storytelling and performance from some of the UK’s best poets and performers… redefining what poetry is and can be.
Kareem Parkins-Brown is a writer and visual artist. He is a proud northwest Londoner and Barbican Young Poet alumnus. He won the Roundhouse Poetry Slam in 2019 and is happiest when watching Mean Girls or Carlito’s Way.
He was shortlisted for Young People’s Laureate for London and the Jerwood Compton Poetry Fellowship in 2019. His work concerns nostalgia, grief, surrealism and hood life circa 2005 – present day. His first pamphlet Oi You Lot was published by Bad Betty Press.
