Poetry & Dance
The Great Slam Battle
On 14 November 2026, the 6th edition will take place at Theater Strahl. Times the Great Poetry & Dance Slam Battle held. Words meet movements. What happens when dance and spoken word meet and how can they lure each other out of their comfort zone?
For this extraordinary evening, actors from the dance scene come together on the big stage in the Theater Strahl with poetry slammers. In several rounds they compete alone, against each other and in dance-poetry duos and inspired the audience and the jury with their art. The whole thing is accompanied by the charming beats of the well-known Berlin rapper and beatboxer Clorophil.
It is also about you! As an audience jury, you decide which contribution wins the evening.
We look forward to another exciting evening with rhythms, moves and words, touching stories, impressive performances and completely new fusions of dance and poetry!
We end the Slam Battle with the beats of Dj Achraf at a party.
