The Austin Poetry SlamPresented by Austin Poetry Slam Council at 29th St. Ballroom at Spider House July 16, 2008 - Ongoing What is Poetry Slam? It's a group of poets competing, usually for cash, with three-minute performances of their works. Judges score Olympic-style, with decimals, so a neo-Wasteland thrillingly intoned gets a 9.8, and the latest Hallmark drivel, muttered into the microphone, gets a 5 or a 6. In individual cities, from Tallahassee to Portland, there's a slam season (roughly September to May) which culminates in a final showdown, which necessitates selection of a four-person slam team to... | Austin Poetry Slam Council | 07/16/08- Ongoing | |

Midnight Society w/ The Frank MillsPresented by ColdTowne Theater at ColdTowne Theater July 3, 2010 - Ongoing Midnight Society is a group of stand up comedians, filmmakers, and other, less-definable performers, who are among the quickest wits in Austin improv.

ColdTowne has won more awards than you can count for their smart, surreal improv, and the best place to see them do it is on their own stage.

Rapture the FlagPresented by ColdTowne Theater at ColdTowne Theater October 1, 2010 - Ongoing Seventy-five percent of the Earth's population has mysteriously disappeared, but the left over populace is still only interested in sports, weather and Best Buy sales.
