Every two months, the Altstadtschmiede in Recklinghausen becomes the venue for the modern poetry contest. The best poets from the German-speaking area present their texts.
Pottpoesie and World of Wordcraft join forces and present the slam in the Recklinghausen district. Here, hammer and anvil are exchanged for microphone and text sheet – brave poets have poured words into verses and stories and are forging them into shape on stage. This shows how diverse the poetry slam scene has become, as diversity is highly valued and the stage is open to all.
