In the 9 years the Broken Speech Poetry Slam existed, we have had a small amount of features at our venue because we
believe featuring only performers who excel in both writing and performing.
To request a feature at the Broken Speech
Poetry Slam, please send an e-mail to
slam@brokenspeech.com and include the following.
1. A brief bio (spelling and grammar count).
2. The date you wish to feature at
the Broken Speech Poetry Slam. (Please make your request at least one month in advance, exceptions will be made if your work
is amazing.)
3. 3-5 poems in text form (if you have a myspace page with text and audio, that's a bonus, but we prefer
text version of your poems - again, spelling and grammar count).
Failure to follow these guidelines will get you an instant rejection. You will receive a decision within 48 hours
of receipt of your e-mail. If we agree to feature you, we expect for you...
1. To show up at least 90 minutes early
before the slam begins.
2. To respect the venue and the audience.
3. To put on one hell of a show.
We
pay $50 for features. We can also help you with accommodations and additional dates in Florida if necessary as well (there
are other events throughout the week where you could do a whole week in Orlando).
If you are interested in featuring,
please follow our submission guidelines and send your request to
slam@brokenspeech.com. Thank you for your interest.
