Deaf Slam Poetry
See the country's finest deaf poets go toe to toe.
Overview
This is poetry like you've never heard it before – and yes, we mean that literally. Presented by Arts Access, Victoria's leading arts and disability organisation, and the Australian Theatre of the Deaf, this free two-hour slam session will see some of the country's best deaf poets delivering their latest works via sign language. A truly unique way to experience poetry, the performance will be followed by a public work shop, where you can pick up a few new verses of your own.
This event is one of our top ten picks of the Melbourne Fringe Festival. Check out the other nine here.
