Last Poet Standing @ The Great Hall, Toronto, ON - Sun Feb 24th!

Are You Ready?? 

The Last Poet Standing

Join us this Sunday, February 24th at 7:30PM, inside of the Great Hall (1087 Queen Street West), for a poetry show like nothing you've ever seen or experienced, unless you attended last year, when Burlington's P.O.E. outlasted the competition, and took home the $500 cash prize.

 

16 poets from Toronto, Buffalo, Guelph, Burlington, Detroit, and Ottawa will step in to a boxing ring, each with the hope of being crowns the Last Poet Standing.

 

7 guest judges will be seated at ringside to determine the fate of each poet. This year's judges are, Juno Award Winner, Jully Black, Olympian, Perdita Felicien, World DMC Turntable Champion, DJ Dopey, Grey Cup Champion, Toronto Argonaut, Jordan Younger, MTV Live Comedian, Dave Merheje, Dub Poet, Lillian Allen, and Hip Hop Artist, D-Sisive. DJ Manifest will keep the battle vibe alive with his musical selections, so get your tickets asap, as this one, like When Sisters Speak, will likely sell out!

 

Advance tickets are $20, and can be purchased via paypal to dmorgan@upfromtheroots,ca, email money transfer to info@upfromtheroots.ca or at Play De Record, 357 Yonge St, A Different Booklist, 746 Bathurst St, Knowledge Bookstore, 177 Queen Street West, Brampton
