Three living and two dead poets compete against each other in a top-class modern poetry contest. Who will emerge victorious? Old or new? Classics or young and wild? Profundity or laughter fireworks? The audience will decide in the end! There's something for everyone at this unique event of contrasts, where you can get to know the familiar anew and discover something new.
The two Hessen champions and spoken word specialists Aileen Schneider and Jan Cönig will host this poetry battle with humor and furor. They will be joined by stars of the current poetry slam scene and two actors with surprise characters from word artists who have already faded away.
