Here it is! The ONE Show you simply HAVE TO go to. If you're only a
casual fan of this poetic jousting called Slam, here's the show you've
been waiting for - all the best poets on one stage. If you're more of
a fanatic, well, HERE'S THE SHOW YOU'VE BEEN WAITING FOR! ALL THE BEST
POETS ON ONE STAGE!!
All that to say it's time for The 12th Annual Oakland Poetry Slam TEAM
FINALS!! On Thursday April 14th we'll bring this extra-exciting
extravaganza to Oakland's one and only Oasis Restaurant & Bar. This
year's finals show will include 8 of the Bay's best and brightest
performance poets over two thrilling rounds of competition; a
spotlight performance from SAMMY KO, winner of The Oakland COMEDY
Slam; special LIVE musical guests DYNAMIC TRUTH; and a thrilling
feature from New York's AINSLEY BURROWS! Slam Selecta DJ MR. G will
scour the crates for the perfect aural accent while everyone's
favorite hostess, that dynamic diva Nazelah keeps the crowd clapping,
the show moving and everyone laughing. We'll have all that AND top it
off with the dope dance party-after spun by the one and only DJ BLACK
of Ships in the Night.
You do know about Ainsley Burrows... right? Ainsley is an
internationally acclaimed poet who has performed at festivals, cafés
and universities across Europe, the Americas and the Caribbean,
receiving numerous awards along the way. These include Best
International Performer of 2001 and 2002 from the Farrago Poetry Café
in London, Munich’s International Poetry Slam Championship award in
2001 and awards from the Nuyorican Poet’s Café in 2001 and 2004. In
addition, Ainsley has conducted many workshops all across the globe
