Word Travel's Story Week

15 - 23 Oct 2022

Australia’s largest performing writer’s program, Word Travel’s Story Week returns from 15 – 23 October. The series of carefully curated events will be held around Sydney and bring together masterful wordsmiths for an inspiring line-up bursting with literary talent from across Australia and the world.

The initial programming for the action-packed week of wordsmithery has been revealed and this year’s centerfold events ensure that everyone can be a poet.

Sharing Circles will bring together anyone who is willing to listen and share. Gathering around the proverbial campground at Word Travels on 17 and 18 October from 6-8pm, Sharing Circles will tackle themes of Equality and Nature, respectively and open the room to subjects surrounding race, gender, accessibility and the environment.

The star-studded lineup of events includes Sydney poet Mel Ree; hip-hop inspired storytelling drawing from Ethan Bell, a Wallabalooa man from the Ngunawal Nation; Huda the Goddessa a spoken word poet, educator, mental health advocate, dancer and workshop facilitator; Andrew Cox, a proud Filipino-Australian writer who’s sought after for his live expressions; and more!

“Poetry and spoken word have the ability to invoke subjects and themes that can push thoughts and incite change” says Miles Merril, Creative Director of Story Week. “This year’s lineup ranges from boundary-breaking writers who are not afraid to bring their own powerful personal personalities to the stage but has also been created to champion the untold stories of those who are itching to enter the world of poetry for the first time.”

The festival comes to an end with the Australian Poetry Slam National Final, a throwdown among the nation’s best outspoken wordsmiths on Sunday 23 October from 7:30-10pm at the iconic Sydney Opera House.

Event Venue: Word Travels
101-111 William St Darlinghurst, NSW 2010
