Mashed Poetics 58: Riot Grrrls Rawk Out

April 24, 2023 @ 9:00 pm - 11:00 pm

$10

Mashed Poetics takes place on the Unceded Traditional Territories of the Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh Nations and we are ever grateful for the opportunity and privilege to share our stories on this land.

A night of songs from the 90’s Riot Grrl movement performed by The Rebel Girls. Hear songs from Bikini Kill, L7, Le Tigre, The Linda Lindas and more. Plus 8 brand new poems inspired by this era of music and political activism.

Mashed Poetics is a night of spoken word and music mashup where a different musical theme or album is featured at every show. Mashed Poets has been going for over a decade now and we celebrated our 50th anniversary show last year at the Verses Festival of Words.
