Who we are :
Colourfree Visions Poetry Theatre are one of many arts companies and practitioners holding poetry slams in U.K. schools. This event will showcase the work of the following proffessional poets, each of whom will nominate one young poet for the U.K. finals. Many work freelance in schools at lesser rates than ours and working with smaller groups. If our company cannot reach your area or are booked on your requested date we will forward your enquiry directly to these poets thus spreading work around the U.K. and encouraging national growth of youth slam poetry.
