Dear, dear friends,
Ellipsis Poetry is about to turn two years old! But before we toddle off into our third year, we are bringing back our 2026 Adelaide Fringe show, All Roads Lead to Bowie, for two more performances only.
Tickets are on sale at Humanitix ($10) or at the door ($15) for both shows. The first is THIS THURSDAY, 23 July at Arthur Art Bar, our birthplace and home to Ellipsis Open Mic. The second is on Sunday 9 August up at Greenock, a stone’s throw away from where the seeds were sown and the story itself began.
This will be your last chance for a long time to see this poetic rendition of our origin story. So clear your calendar, buy your tickets, and come along.
We will mark our birthday at Ellipsis Open Mic with free pins, free sign ups and the TIME BANK. Scroll down for details or hit the link here.
Our very first Poets’ Forum happened and we had an informative and fruitful discussion, workshopping titles, form and intent of various works. There is another one in just a couple of weeks - Saturday 1 August. Details further down or right here.

What’s Been…
July Open Mic
A slightly quieter night than we’ve had lately, but still a beautiful batch of warm and wonderful poetic beings gathered to take the chill out of an otherwise brisk winter evening.
Jas won Say It In Six and will be heading along to see All Roads Lead to Bowie this Thursday. Congratulations!
And also…
There is another edition of Poets Take Over! on the way. Friday 28 August at Page & Turner. Some fabulous poets already booked to feature. More on that in the next newsletter.
Thanks for being part of this big adventure.
For the love of poetry…
