Literary Death Match

Algonquin Roundtable meets Theater of the Absurd!  

Literary Death Match brings together four prominent authors to read their most electric writing for seven minutes or less before a panel of three all-star judges. After each pair of readers, the judges take turns spouting their often off-the-wall commentary - in the categories of literary merit, performance and intangibles-before selecting their favorite to advance to the finals. The two finalists then compete in the Literary Death Match finale, which trades in the show's literary sensibility for a comical climax to determine who takes home the Literary Death Match crown.

Trendy, subversive, geeky, raucous, sexy, hilarious, and just plain fun, Literary Death Match lures the curious, brainy, excitable and otherwise for a must-attend evening of lit, libations and laughter. www.literarydeathmatch.com
