Dublin’s first Literary Death Match

Fancy an evening listening to the sharpened words of some of Dublin’s writers? The Literary Death Match is coming to the Sugar Club tomorrow night (5th). Literary entities (magazines, publishers, etc.) are invited to send their most electric writer to represent them on the evening. Dublin’s first Death match will feature award-winning fiction writer and poet Nuala Ní Chonchúir, Stinging Fly‘s hand-picked reader-representative Colm Liddy, scribe Brian O’Connell (author of Wasted: A Sober Journey Through Drunken Ireland) and spoken-word brillianteur Marty Mulligan. There’s a seven minute time limit per reader, three all-star judges reeling off jovial critique and a goofball finale to decide the winner.
Where & When: The Sugar Club, 8 Lower Leeson Street Doors: 7:30, show at 9:15 (sharp), afterparty: 11 p.m on.
Cost: €6 preorder; €9 at the door; €6 with a valid student ID.
