After an incredible May session with Luka Lesson, this June Spoke & Bird is super hyped to welcome award-winning poet, fiction writer, critic, writer and Pokemon Go player Ng Yi-Sheng.

Ng Yi-Sheng is a Singaporean writer and LGBT+ activist, currently pursuing a Creative Writing PhD at Nanyang Technological University. His books include the poetry collections last boy (winner of the Singapore Literature Prize), Loud Poems for a Very Obliging Audience and A Book of Hims; the best-selling non-fiction work SQ21: Singapore Queers in the 21st Century; and the speculative fiction collection Lion City.

The open mic will run as usual with a dozen 5-minute slots available. Each open mic-er will be given 5 minutes to perform any number of poems. Sign up for a spot below!
