About this Event:

‘Chocolate is the Word’ is a unique collaboration between pupils in Year 7 and 8 at the Oxford Academy in Littlemore and MA in creative writing students at Oxford Brookes University. Under the Brookes students’ guidance, academy pupils have devised, written, and will perform here, a series of stories and poems based on chocolate, a theme they have also been studying in their classes. They will be joined by Kate Clanchy, the official City Poet and Brookes creative writing fellow.

The event is presented by Oxford Brookes University and chaired by Dr James Hawes, director of creative writing at the university’s Department of English and Modern Languages and author of Speak For England, A White Merc With Fins, Excavating Kafka and Rancid Aluminium.
