Poetry on TV

'The Wordshed' will be broadcast on the new community television channel TV Sydney. It is a half-hour poetic program composed of poems, interviews with writers, readings and performances, dramatic sequences, mini-lectures, and critical discussion.

‘The Wordshed’ will be presented by Johanna Featherstone, from The Red Room Company, (www.redroomorganisation.org) on behalf of the Writing and Society Research Group in the College of Arts, Education and Social Sciences at the University of Western Sydney.

Six half-hour episodes will be produced in the first instance, to be broadcast between the startup of TV Sydney in November and December 2005.
