UK Poetry Slam Champion Tyrone Lewis teams up with Writer and Director Kayla Martell Feldman to bring you PROCESS, a monthly Spoken Word night featuring some of the most exciting acts across the scene.
Spring is springing! To bring us into the new season in our new Victoria Park venue, we have the once-in-a-generation talent and Process family member Thea as our headline poet for March, alongside (of course) our regular open mic (sign up on the door) and sacrifices from our gorgeous hosts.
Thea is a Romanian emerging artist currently based in London, driven by an innate craving for nonconformity, child-like wonder, and a strong sense of justice. Known for her dynamic and distinctly personal spoken word style, she made herself known in the London poetry scene by performing provoking emotional pieces sprinkled with a bit of Eastern European humour. Her favourite word is “silly” because it sounds... well, silly (but “puddle” is a close second). Having a background in journalism and hard sciences, her work engages with complex stories involving injustice, multilingualism, cultural trauma, and explores identity on a linguistic level. Alongside being a Roundhouse Resident Artist, Thea is also developing her first solo show "If I were to say it in English" (seen at Voila! Theatre Festival 2025) and has represented Romania at the European Slam Championship.

Code of Conduct
We do not tolerate any abuse. By attending a Process event, you agree to the following code of conduct:

- Open mic slots are five minutes long! At 4 minutes and 45 seconds, we'll ring a bell to signal that you have 15 seconds to wrap it up. 15 seconds is shorter than you think!
- If your set includes potentially upsetting/triggering material, please give a content warning or trigger warning at the start - we won't include that as part of your five minutes. Nudity is not allowed at Process - if we see your genitals or butthole, you will be banned for life (nipples are allowed but please give us a heads-up first).
Please note that we film and photograph every event - if you don't want any video or images of you to go online, please let Kayla or Tyrone know. You can do so either on the night or afterwards.
