ABOUT

Poems In The Kitchen is a cosy night of poetry and delicious food in Cape Town's favourite kitchen away from home. Karen Dudley's The Kitchen in Woodstock is the venue for the second event in Toni Stuart's performance series, "the winter sessions". Kitchens are undoubtedly the most lived in and loved places in our homes. Dinners that lead into late-night conversations, childhood memories of time spent in kitchens with grandparents or aunts and uncles baking their favourite recipes. Join us for a very special performance by Toni Stuart, while eating Karen's nourishing & heart-warming food. There'll be dinner of hot soup and fresh home-baked bread. Gather a group of friends and join us for this very special event.


Please note that dinner is included in your ticket price.
