Poetry NonScenes: New performance poems beyond the struggle

A collection of performance poetry from a range of the freshest South African voices - school learners, university students, and working professionals. Compiled from two workshops held in 2024, these poems show that the poetry of the stage is also of the page, covering an array of subjects and unrestrained by form. Edgy, experimental and passionate, here are diverse and dynamic reflections on the present moment in South Africa and the world, by those who will write its future.
