SUMMARY:Amman Poetry Slam
DESCRIPTION:The Amman Poetry Slam is the first ever regular poetry slam in Amman! It is an extention of Delilah’s Corner\, Delilah’s vision for a literary culture and audience. Delilah is the founder of the Amman Writing Club\, whose members will be performing at the slam. \nThe Amman Poetry Slam gives local talent the opportunity to showcase thier Spoken Word Poetry. It is an open mic event that promotes the creation and performance of poetry and provides a place for voices to be appreciated beyond thier cultural\, social\, political\, or economic boarders. The purpose of the slam is to engage the community and allow for its voices to be heard through the power of voice. \n“We bring together writers from various forms and backgrounds\, including the best contemporary novelists\, screenwriters\, musicians and writers of cutting-edge nonfiction\, and some of the world’s leading public intellectuals\, scientists and journalists. With the finest writing and storytelling at its core\, our programming is driven by the ideas and issues that animate all types of literature.” \n\nHere’s how it works: \nOn the evening of the event\, participants who wish to perform put their names down on a sign-up sheet. \nThese participants have 3 minutes to perform their own original work\, and are judged by 5 randomly chosen audience members. The highest and lowest scores are omitted to prevent bias\, and the median of the remaining 3 scores is calculated. The three performers with the highest scores win. \nOn the night\, we also showcase local musical talent at the beginning of each half\, and have a “feature act” in which a seasoned poet performs a set of poetry. \nAny proceeds or donations we receive on the night are funnelled back into the slam to pay for the lighting and sound technician and the costs of sponsoring feature poets to perform. \n\nIt is hosted at the mentioned venue on the last Monday of every month! \nSpeakers may contact Delilah at AmmanWritingClub@gmail.com to register beforehand. Registations may also be made on the day of the event and begin at 5:45 PM. Ticket are 5 JDs each to be paid at the door. The venue is to be comfirmed upon further notice.
