HONOLULU POETRY SLAMThursday, September 24th
Show starts at 7
The Honolulu Poetry Slam is a monthly spoken word poetry competition. The Slam combines poetry and performance with Honolulu’s best poets competing for bragging rights and a cash prize. Each poet has three minutes to present their original poetry, to be scored by judges chosen from the audience. The top three poets go on to the final round and gain a spot in the Grand Slam Finals in May.
Each month’s Slam also features fabulous guest visual and performance artists who dazzle with a range of talents. From singers and songwriters to flow artists and dancers, their performances complement the verbal artistry of the poets.
Reminder: we are starting earlier this season! Doors open and poet sign up starts at 6; show starts at 7. Tickets will be $15 in advance, $20 at the door.
Musical awesomeness, as always, is provided by DJ WanderLust, a multitalented artist and educator, and the best damn DJ in poetry. And your host and MC is Liam Skilling.
The Slam is held at the Slack Key Lounge in Hawaiian Brian’s at 1680 Kapiolani Blvd on the second floor. Validated parking, food, and drinks!
Come check us out, to listen, to connect, or take the stage yourself. Doors open and poet sign up starts at 6; show starts at 7.
