Totally Positive Productions Announces Spoken Word Talent Competition, Taking Place 4/27
Totally Positive Productions is searching for positive youth Spoken Word Artists for its upcoming "Education" Spoken Word Talent Competition 2013 which will be held at Gorilla Tango Theatre (Bucktown) on Saturday, April 27, 2013. The winner will receive $300.00, but before performing in the competition, hopefuls must first audition at one of three dates to ensure that the message and/or performance are free of derogatory messages and profanity.
"The winner will not only be judged on style and delivery, but their content must be clean and family friendly. We don't allow our participants to use any derogatory or negative language in their music and spoken word piece in our competitions," said Taj Jones, the organization founder and director. "We are about promoting our youth who uplift and respect themselves. This is to give them an outlet and to showcase those youth doing right."
Auditions are being held at Gorilla Tango Theatre Bucktown (1919 N. Milwaukee Ave. Chicago, IL 60647). Audition dates and times are as follows:
Sunday, April 7, 2013 from 2:00pm to 5:00pm
