​​

Honest, accessible and engaging. Moore please.

Henry Normal, poet

​

A new, true, realistic voice. Funny & sad spoken word from a woman who has lived,

and whose poems generously share some of that lifeforce with her reader.

Kate Fox, author​

​

Lisa Moore is a spoken word artists whose writing is deeply steeped in that which makes us human

and 'gets us through' - grit, love and dark humour! Her work is full of spirit,

and Mancunian dialect both springs off the page and delights on the stage.

Isabelle Kenyon, Fly on the Wall Press

​

The world is big and little, frenetic and reflective. Moore is mad at it (the world, the life) and in love with it too. And it is all here, in these big and little, frenetic and reflective poems. Poets are everywhere. Most are rubbish. Moore is an exception.

Mark Hodkinson, author

​

Moore navigates the intimacy and agony of many types of love against a context of relentlessly advancing time. These poems place sensuality at the heart of their transformative passion for the world and its emotional phenomena.

Dr Tom Attah, musician, author

Lisa has been honing her craft for over a decade. From winning a spot at the prestigious Vault Festival in 2018 with her poem "You've Lost That Loving Feeling and It's Only Been Two Weeks," to being featured on various discussion panels, she has made a name for herself in the spoken word community.

​

She was commissioned to write a piece for International Women's Week, titled "Silver Foxes." The piece highlighted the plight of female actors being pushed out of the acting industry at 45+. It was published by The Conversation in an article titled "Invisible Lives: Where are all the older women in film and TV?" and featured across social media.  "The Menopause Poem" has also been featured heavily on various platforms, including radio, and is regularly requested at conferences and menopausal events.
