Sunday, February 18, 2024 @ 18:00! Go Join us at the only English language poetry slam running in Poland! Cabaret Poetry Slam was created to encourage expats to participate in the fun, but by all means, Polish poets, come with your Polish poems! ❤ ❤ ❤ Sunday, February 18, 2024 @ 18:00! Go to To Się Wytnie on ul. Stalowa 46 (near Metro Szwedzka). IMPORTANT: There are no tickets to enter, but please bring a donation for the winner of the slam! We don't take credit card donations, but we do take cash money and other gifts, so please support the poets! **To sign up send a PM to Cabaret Poetry Slam, or sign up before the show on the 9th. There are only 20 spots available, so get em while their hot! ****All languages are welcome! We invite anyone who wants to be heard, so don't be surprised if we throw in an OPEN MIC at some point. Poems, songs, interpretative dances, stand up, circus acts ect... are all welcome at the OPEN MIC! Just let us know before and we'll make it happen for you. So now let's get things straight... WHAT ARE THE RULES? The Cabaret Poetry Slam sticks to the dirty Chicago rules... Thus, we kinda like to break all the rules, we need a little orderly chaos in our lives, we will do our best to conform to some basic guidelines: 1. You have 3 minutes to perform in each round. Everyone performs in the 1st round. Four poets get through to the 2nd round and two poets to the third. 2. Perform your OWN poems (if anyone smells an imposter, they'll be sure to let you know)! 3. Usually no props or costumes are allowed but this time (Feb 18, 2024) go all out! 4. Judges will be chosen randomly from the audience. Slammers should be judged equally on their poetry and performance. Please remember the philosophy of all poetry slams is integrity, so use it! 🙂 5. The winner get's cash money and other random gifts the audience decides to throw in. This is called the "Good-will of the Audience" prize. Like we said before, there are no tickets to get in, so just support the poets, by throwing some cash or other goodies in the prize bag. ***IMPORTANT NOTE: The Cabaret Poetry Slam, like all slams around the world, is a place for free expression, yet it is NOT A PLACE FOR HATERS. If you plan to insult the beliefs of others in any way, shape, or form, AKA being a jackass, you might as well stay home. ***IMPORTANT NOTE TO THE AUDIENCE: Remember, in a poetry slam, poets and audiences are created equal. Without you, there would be no slam. If you feel like someone is crossing the line, AKA being a jackass, you are allowed to voice your opinion. Booing, hissing, stomping, and snapping are all allowed and encouraged. Of course positive reinforcements are even more encouraged, so please cheer, holler, and declare your love to your favorite poets! ***Note to everyone: Once again, we all must remember the philosophy of slam: integrity. ***LIKE STATED ABOVE PLEASE SIGN UP FOR THE SLAM VIA MESSENGER AT Cabaret Poetry Slam or on the day of the slam. SPACE IS LIMITED. (20 spots) Thanks and see you there, Izabela Joanna and D'Chaos AKA the CPS SLAM MASTAS **************************************** Warszawski Cabaret Poetry Slam!
