Great feedback from the Speechless performance at Stockton:
My name is Katie Metcalfe and I'm a poet and author. I'm currently studying at the university of Cumbria and traveled back home to Teesside for the Speechless event in Stockton. I have to say it was easily one of the BEST performances I have been to in a very l...ong time. Motivational, inspirational, diverse, thought provoking, emotive, it had everything and more. The project with the youngsters from Stockton was wonderful and had the audience captivated.

SPEECHLESS
Are there things that just can’t be said? Enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights is the right to freedom of opinion and expression – but what does this mean in an age of anxiety and mistrust? Speechless brings together new poetry from five amazing writers from across South East Asia and four brilliant U...K-based poets on the theme of freedom of expression in a unique new multi-lingual spoken word show. Incorporating different perspectives and experiences from Vietnam to Ireland and sexuality to slavery, Speechless will be a night that stimulates brain-tingling debate, covering issues that define our existence.
Each performance features a selection from: Priya K (Malaysia), Siege Malvar (Philippines), Pooja Nansi (Singapore), Liu Liang Yen (Taiwan), Da Thao Phuong (Vietnam) and UK artists Francesca Beard, Malika Booker, Aoife Mannix and Jacob Sam-La Rose .
An Apples & Snakes and British Council production in association with English PEN
