Hi, we're FutureWord, presenting spoken word with music events in London and beyond.

Welcome to an immersive monthly residency at the Harrow Arts Centre Bar. Futureword.London is where the spoken word meets the digital age. We are a collective dedicated to the art of performance—blending poetry, storytelling, and music into a single, seamless experience.

Every month, your hosts Alice & Marek curate an evening of atmospheric exploration. Each performance includes some or all of the following:

• The Word: Compelling poetry and storytelling.

• The Sound: Live or recorded musical accompaniment 

• The Vision: Simultaneous projected imagery to pull the audience into the story.

A Space for Respectful Expression

We believe that true creativity flourishes within a community built on respect. To ensure Futureword remains a welcoming space for all, we operate with two clear guidelines:

1. The 5-Minute Rule: Every performance slot is strictly limited to 5 minutes. This keeps the energy high and ensures a diverse range of voices in a single evening.

2. Our Values: We celebrate freedom of expression within the bounds of human kindness. We have a zero-tolerance policy for racism, sexism, antisemitism, or islamophobia. We are here to build bridges, not barriers.

Join the Performance

Whether you are a seasoned poet or a storyteller with a new tale, we encourage musical accompaniment to your words. You can bring your own recorded backing tracks or play live along with your words. Newcomers to performing the spoken word (with or without music) are very welcome.
