On May 19, 2026, word artists meet with their self-written texts for a literary competition, where the audience decides the victor and applause.

Literary Experience with Direct Audience Energy

The interplay of voice, text, and audience decision transforms the evening into a genuine author encounter experience that combines literary quality with immediate stage presence. It is this directness that gives the format its unmistakable allure.
