Through poetry/spoken word, humor, movement and sound, CRUSH lets us confront topics relating to gender and sexuality, while SMASH brings to stage the realms of race and class and their many intersections and points of impact. . Each weekend, a poet esteemed for work in print, another for work in performance, a youth poet, and an all-ages slam bring the intensity, communal, high energy, and highly competitive world of the rapidly evolving poetry slam to Links Hall in rapid fire world duels that break through each individual audience members separate peace.
