Profile
Every Monday night Café Deux Soleils hosts the Vancouver Poetry Slam where a mere fifteen bucks gets you a bottle of brew, a big bowl of edamame and a bevy of modern day beat poets who provide plenty of food for thought.
The competing orators, some of whom have won national competitions, vie for a nightly prize. Crowd participation is encouraged by booing judges’ scores and reprimanding poets who exceed the three minute limit. And yes, there’s even finger snapping.
