Every month S.A.F.E.! Words! brings you the finest in spoken word poetry from Orlando and beyond, and tonight will be no exception!
Tonight, we bring you THE MASQUERADE BALL, a special two-round slam just in time for Halloween, in which we'll be celebrating the genre of poetry called persona poems -- pieces shared specifically in first-person narrative in the voice of a character! As this is a special event, costumes are allowed and encouraged!
BUT WAIT. THERE'S MORE!
If you don't have any persona poems in your canon, you're allowed to sign up and slam as your favorite dead poet, performing covers of their work! Again, costumes allowed and encouraged! Sign-up starts promptly at 8pm!
BUT WAIT, THERE'S EVEN MORE!
Tonight's special feature will be none other than living spoken word legend and the only 3-time winner of The Individual World Poetry Slam, Ed Mabrey!!! This is a once-in-a-lifetime event, so be sure to get there early to grab a seat and purchase some of merchandise from one of the greatest to ever do it!!
See you at the slam!!
