Opened Ground: A Creative Tribute To Seamus Heaney

Local and regional poets and performers present an inspiring evening of works written and influenced by the great Irish writer, featuring readings, music, original writing and interpretive performances.
This celebratory show is curated by the exciting young York poet OLIVER LEWIS, for whom Heaney is a much loved touchstone. Navigators are proud and delighted to help him achieve a long-held ambition.
Oliver's guests include:
Mythical/mystical song and storytelling duo ADDERSTONE
The fresh voice of newly published AIMEE DONNELL
Lyrical folk duo WHERE THE DEER GO
"The finest love poet of his generation" - and a damn fine political one too! - IAN PARKS
Singer and multi-instrumentalist JANE STOCKDALE from alt-folk legends White Sail
... and more.
