ChillView
When it’s hot outside, you need to Chill indoors with some hot team poetry slamming.
The Ill List is one of our favorite events each year. Not only do we get an amazing line up of national caliber slam poets, the Ill List team makes out amazing sponsor commercial. This year, the Chill List returns to the State Theatre. Organized by the Ninja Poet Sam Pierstorff and Ruhi Shiekh, the Chill List will feature four of the best poetry slam *teams* in the country competing for a $2000 prize. Poetry slam teams are comprised of the top-ranked poets in a particular city who have competed and won their respective slams. As a team, poets choose to compete in pairs or as a full ensemble of up to five voices through four rounds of performance poetry. So imagine what you’ve seen at the ILL LIST and multiply that by 2, 3, 4 or 5 poets on stage performing at once! Do not miss this. Presented by Collins Electric and ModestoView.
