Stanzalone Poetry and Spoken Word open mic has been steadily building a brilliantly eclectic following since it started last year. The group of volunteers behind it are doing an amazing job of building and supporting community arts in the Auchterarder area – not just poetry, but drama and visual arts too. It was a huge pleasure to fill the headline slot at last week’s open mic, and to enjoy the other performers. Have a look at Stanzalone’s Facebook page for more details. Thanks to Shirley Williams for the photo.
