The Intimacy of Words is a unique two-person poetry performance, a window into the experience of two lovers, charting the story of their lives and their relationship entirely through poetic dialogue.

The Canterbury earthquakes were a major cause of stress and separation for many people, but in the case of Sarah Amazinnia and Andy Coyle, the disasters reunited their family after five years apart, and their reunion was followed by the arrival of another child. This unforgettable performance is an intimate, sensual and jarring revelation of what it means to be together in testing times.
