Playrights vs. Poets: Valentine’s Day Edition at West of Lenin

The “World’s Greatest Literary Boxing Match of the Year” will take place this Saturday at the West of Lenin theater in Fremont. Medicine Ball: Playwright v. Poets will take on “the most fearsome tropic to face mankind- Love and Sex.” The innovative literary challenge will take the stage three times this weekend, Friday and Saturday at 8pm and Sunday at 2pm. A variety of poets, playwrights, actors, visual artists and directors all take part.

Like a boxing match, playwrights and poets are paired off, given a
prompt to write toward, and then the acting company performs the plays
and poems produced in a series of seven rounds with the audience voting
on who wins each round – playwright or poet. At the end of the weekend,
ballots are tallied and the winning team of writers each wins a bottle
of Two-Buck-Chuck while each member of the losing team wins a can of
warm Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer. So there are no losers in Medicine Ball:
Playwrights v. Poets! Everybody is a winner!

Tickets for Medicine Ball: Playwrights v. Poets can be purchased online $20 for general admission and $10 for TPS, Military, Senior, and Students. West of Lenin theater is located at 203 N 36th Street, Seattle.
