In fact Uncle Travelling Kez is still out of town, scouring the countryside, collecting experiences, second-hand books and sunsets. But with the marvellous invention of the computer and world wide interweb, we’re able to bring to you exciting news and announcements!
The Timely Return of your Favourite Evening of Poetical Pontification!
Yes that’s right, Catalyst Open Mic returns – with a brand new, central city venue!
Catalyst is pleased as punch to announce that we are coming to you live from Al’s Bar in Dundas St, Christchurch (between Manchester & Colombo Sts, opposite Smiths City carpark and Pak n’ Save. Al’s Bar is the venue for many great live music acts from both Aotearoa/NZ and abroad and now it can add spoken word & poetry to that growing list. Fellow Lytteltonian, Uncle Al Park has invited Christchurch’s favourite poetry open mic night in from the wilderness, like the shivering, homeless little lamb it was.
So now it’s even easier for all you lovely Christchurch people to come and enjoy the only regular poetry/spoken word soiree in town.
Same time, same dates, new venue! First Thursday of the month, 8pm. All welcome, bring yer own writing to test in front of a live audience!
The first night is going to be an extravaganza just to kick things off and usher in the springtime of your literary year.

Yeah. How very excellent.
To think that they (catalyst) were invited to come to a bar near you to read and recite and generally ponce about on the stage is great news.
We will possibly have to come up for the night and enjoy you all again.
Keep up the great work.....
