A poetry slam isn't just someone reading a poem in a dramatic style. It's an actual competition with poets and judges and scores.
Our slams are open sign ups with the lists going up when the doors for the show open. Our slams are the only consistent event in Houston where poets can win cash prizes as well as points that go toward their overall ranking in our slam league. Every time poets compete in our slams they receive:
- 2 pts for slamming
- 4 pts for third place
- 6 pts for second place
- 8 pts for winning
The top point accumulating poets throughout the slam season will have the opportunity to qualify and represent Write About Now and Houston at individual and team national poetry slam events across the nation. Not only are we the only consistent show offering cash prizes to poets. We're also one of the only groups where proceeds support poets in showcasing their work at major festivals nationally, creating accessible and sustainable opportunities in the arts that wouldn't exist otherwise.
And the food is just as good as the poetry.
Rudyard's has been ranked a top 100 restaurant by The Houston Chronicle.
Thanks for making room for poetry in your life.
Even if you can't make it out, we appreciate the word of mouth.
