About

Sadie Davidson is a writer, poet, performer, producer and playwright. She is also a former stripper and recovering addict which she feels colours both her life and work wonderfully. She is the author of “Tales From The Estate”, hosts the long running open mic “Dangerous Poetry” and is the founder of Essex Poetry Collective.

She was a semi finalist in the 2018 U.K Slam Championships and winner of Canterbury’s Your Bard 8 in September 2018. She is performing at Spoken Word Paris in September and will be supporting internationally renowned poet Holly McNish in October.

She produced her own spoken word album “Council House and Silent” and her debut play “Bare Lies” will premiere as part of Southend Festival, in an immersive, site specific location.

Sadie has performed at a number of festivals and literary events around the country, including a performance at the Royal Festival Hall.

“Sadie Davidson..in a spoken word set that bit with lightning like fury and machine gun delivery. This was edgy and dangerous poetry.”

“This knocked me sideways. This was about something. Something real. It’s strong stuff. Just like poetry ought to be and – sometimes- used to be”

“Sadie Davidson should be on everyone’s ‘must see’ list. Wise, funny and extremely clever. She puts many ‘contenders to the throne’ in the spoken word shade. The best thing to come out of Essex since Depeche Mode.”
