Guest poet 7.00pm followed by Open Mic

Readings by a different local published poet each month were delighted to welcome performance poet and author, AMANDA CRUNDALL.

Amanda began to write again in January 2022 after her friends urged her to write down how she was feeling as a therapeutic outlet; so she did. She has rediscovered her creative self, amongst being a busy mummy and working life. Amanda works as a full time heart failure nurse specialist and is a single mother to two amazing children. Surprising many of her friends how she finds the time amongst such a busy life remains her best kept secret.

Her poetry was featured in The Scroll Magazine during October 2022, and in 2023, Amanda performed her poetry at The Festival of Love, D31 Art Gallery, Doncaster and Scunthorpe Pride on behalf of the Speak Out Scunny. She co hosted and performed for the spoken word stage at the No Limits Festival 2023 held at Normanby Hall, Scunthorpe.

More recently, Amanda has taken to the radio waves and has featured both pre-recorded and ‘’live on air’’ for Phoenix Community Radio, Goole.

You can find Amanda performing at her local spoken word events at Speak Out Scunny, The Confessional, Away with Words. Her debut performance was at Yada Yada Noise in February 2022. She now proudly co-hosts ‘‘Rabbiting On’‘ spoken word group held at ‘The Rabbit Hole’ Independent bookshop, Brigg with partner in poetry Amy Garratt.

“Powerful poems, some meant to be performed, some to be read. Plain written, uninhibited observations of the challenges of everyday life and the toll they take on our mental well being. A must read for the empath and the emotionally aware” Geoff Probert, Performance Poet

“Amanda takes the mic and whoosh!!! There she goes! A firecracker! A powerhouse of enthusiasm, putting her all into her poetry, with her burning commitment to deliver a stellar performance. She never fails to disappoint! Sarah Drury,” Performance Poet

‘Heart on her sleeve’ is her debut publication.
