Stage Invasion: Poetry & the Spoken Word Renaissance


Add your own review!

Overview

"Award-winning poet Pete ""the Temp” Bearder presents the unwritten history, science and skill of spoken word. Stage Invasion answers some strangely unaddressed questions: How was the live art of spoken verse kicked out of the Kingdom of Poetry? What is the history of the art form? How does emotional contagion happen in live performance? What has spoken word got to do with hypnotism and ecstatic states? This groundbreaking book explores a thriving ecology of artistry, and how it can serve us for cultural, social and political renewal."

Author Information

Pete the Temp is a poet, educator and musician. His work has been featured on BBC radio and TV and in 2009 he became the National Poetry Slam Champion. Pete has toured theatres across England with his one man show Pete (the Temp) vs Climate Change. In 2015 he completed the MA Writer / Teacher Programme at Goldsmiths University. This led him to become one of the world's first full-time spoken word educators to be embedded in a secondary school. He later went on to pilot the same work in a primary school. He was subsequently invited to deliver a TED Talk on the subject Why Every School Should Have a Spoken Word Educator. Pete has toured all over Europe with his art and now works as a poet and street performer. His book Numbered Boxes (9781909136908) was published by Burning Eye Books in 2016.
