Platform Presents & Montblanc

In June 2019, Platform Presents was asked to curate an evening of poetry for the launch of Mont Blanc’s Writer’s Edition, inspired by Rudyard Kipling. They approached and worked with spoken word performer George The Poet and actress, playwright and poet Jade Anouka.

Both artists responded to the original poet, Kipling, taking on the baton in their own particular way, performing both his and their own original poetry at Annabel’s London to an audience of 100 people. This curated evening demonstrated the thrilling feeling of live performance and the power of poetry.
