Words on Fire is a week night “poetry happy hour” held approximately every other month at Firehouse Theatre since September of 2015. Each event features a showcase reading by a poet from our community as well as an open mic. Participants and guests alike are encouraged to mingle, sip, and be inspired.
Firehouse has a cash bar serving beer/wine, sodas & light snacks. The event has a $5 cover.
You can check out clips from a couple of our previous events filmed by Bill Glose on YouTube at Virginia Poetry Online.
