THE GREAT ULSTER
- SCOTS POETRY
CHALLENGE

FRIDAY MAY 7
DUKE OF YORK 8.00PM

Last year saw Belfast take on Derry and emerge bloodied but unbowed. This year the challenger is a crack squad of Scotland’s finest featuring Anita Govan, Rachel Jury and Jenny Lindsay, performance poets par excellence. Who will emerge victorious in the battle of wits to the end?

Rachel Lindsay, Anita Govan and…… have all extensive experience on the National performance poetry circuit and have promised to take the game to the home team
