Tennesses Williams Festival
Come hear New Orleans’ finest performance poets throw down their best verse in the fierce lyrical battle that is our annual Poetry Slam. Resident spoken word supremo Chuck Perkins will host, and you could be amongst the audience members called upon to judge the poetic proceedings and anoint the 2012 Slam winner. No experience necessary, but a good ear and a willingness to be thrilled and entertained is essential. If you’ve got some rhymes to share and want to compete, come sign up from 7-7:30 PM. The evening will also feature music performances by the Mario Abney Trio
