Zones of Avoidance - A word-dance into the void of Addiction

A Word-Dance into the Void of Addiction


Join the narrator’s quest to discover the lure of psychoactive substances following her daughter’s descent into addiction.

A multimedia live literature production, Zones of Avoidance captures the desperate and surreal mundanity of living with addiction. The show combines the poet's moving testimony with the voices of addicts in recovery.

Maggie Sawkins is the author of two full collections of poetry and founder of Portsmouth’s Tongues&Grooves poetry and music club. 

Written and performed by Maggie Sawkins
