Slammer should stand (for) the three things: stage, microphone and audience. Presented texts can be the result of preparation or pure improvisation - as you wish. Rhymed, not-rhymed, lyrical and politically incorrect lyrics, lyrics of the songs and overheard talks from the street, trolleys and waiting rooms, captured thoughts before falling asleep - with a meaning or without.

Forms have no limits, intervention from/to the audience is important. They can enter in the presentations of slammer not only with clapping or whistling. They are not only the judges, but also an interactive element whit which every performer should count on.

The fifth edition is, the same as the previous ones, open, the winner receives a cash prize. Anyone can subscribe (yes, you too!) with a courage to step in front of the audience and a conviction that he/she will entertain with his/her performance.

Afternoon workshop before exhibition will be this time conducted by Bene, who will be focused on the beauty of the words and will share his experiences about getting the audience.
