A Queer Play On Words

Seattle’s vibrant and diverse arts community is about to grow a little bigger. Gay City Health Project, Capitol Hill’s gay health and wellness organization, will be playing host to Word Play on Thursday, August 18. Billed as a “fun, free, smart, and sexy sober spoken word event”, Word Play is sure to please even the most discerning fan of queer spoken word.

Word Play continues the tradition of Shifting Words, providing an outlet for queer spoken word artists in recovery to share their experiences with living with addiction. The evening will include performances from such notable queer spoken word artists as Maya Hersh, Jodie Knowles, Jack McCarthy, Okanomode, and Gay City’s own Susan Rees, as well as featuring the incomparable Tara Hardy from Bent.

• Date: Thursday August 18
• Time: 8pm - 10pm
• Place: Kaladi Brothers Coffee (511 E Pike)
• Cost: Free

Word Play is sponsored by the Shift Peer Recovery Network and Kaladi Brothers Coffee.
