A Lizard Lounge Poetry Jam tradition! Each year, from September through December, our slam poets compete to qualify for the Most Valuable Poet (MVP) Slam events, which take place every January. Sixteen Poets qualify for the two semi-final slam events, followed by the MVP Finals.
This first MVP Semifinal Slam features the following poets: Art Collins, Finn Flood, Lawrence Nunes, Lexi Wight, Mike Savadian, Navah the Buddaphli , Renaissance, and Toni Rose.
These slams are super-popular and always showcase phenomenal spoken word talent. The top four poets from tonight along with the top four poets from the second semifinal will move on to the finals on 1/29/24.
