More Fun than You’d Expect
As time drifts on it can dawn on you that you just don’t operate as culturally as you did when you were once young. You wake up to the noisy roadworks outside your window, before stumbling to work, maybe read a vacuous free paper then straight into the day’s tasks. These days can pass with metamorphic tendencies to turn into years. To break up the cycle and offer something up that deserves your input would be to attend London chamber music at King’s Place. It’s a brilliant new location which plays host to a wide range of arts.
On Sundays there is a spoken word event. These weekly gatherings entail a large group of like minded folk getting together to discuss profoundly current affairs, prose or selected topics in a way that has much more substance than you would perhaps find if such topics took place on question time.
Although you may think you have a mundane life of getting to work, staring at a screen all day to go home to cook sleep and then repeat, even this type of life experience can reveal elements of beauty when analysed. Whether it be something as ordinary as sitting in a café looking out the window or even getting the stains out of your favourite shirt after a night out. It is these little segments of everyday life that are discussed at these weekly meetings.
It also welcomes anyone from the long established poets who even thinks of borings tasks such as washing up in elaborate prose; to the local milkman that must do a great deal of contemplation during their daily rounds. After a few visits of going you’ll find yourself easily get more involved in discussions and participating at a greater level each time.
The genres of topic covered range from anything that has ever been talked on this planet, or anything that has been written on paper. It can really broaden your outlook on life and will definitely be a refreshing experience. You may have turned your nose up at such an evening in the past, all I can say is, give it a try and I am sure you will be pleasantly surprised.
There isn’t a better way to start the week than get your brain cells working in an in depth discussion. Your brain is still not fully awake from the weekends relaxation, so it’s nice to do something to get you thinking. These sessions will make you aware how relaxing listening to prose or speaking prose actually is.
