Poet in Da Corner

Poet in Da Corner

Work:: Poet in Da Corner (S347083757)


Production:: (T01065025744)

A fusion of poetry, grime and movement inspired by the flows Dizzee Rascal's genre defining album, Boy in da Corner, step into a pirate radio station, teenage bedroom and house party as an outsider battles with finding their voice. There will be music, lyrics, poetry, dancing (if you're that way inclined) and a story unfolding in-between the smoke, strobe and decks. What if someone fights, against the odds, against all their surrounding opinions and narratives to achieve the life they want, then realise it's not what they need? 13 years after Dizzee Rascal's debut album was released Debris remembers how it gave her permission to re-define success against the odds and become a poet - but what has she forgotten along the way?
