The evening presents Juno award-winning vocalist, actor, director and general powerhouse Renae Morriseau; musicologist, technique expert, teacher and vocalist Sandy Scofield; rising star with loads of talent Niska Napoleon; and Downtown Eastside’s own Dalannah Gail Bowen, a veteran of the Vancouver music scene and recent winner of the right to represent BC at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis. Accompanied on keyboard by Simon Kendall. Filled with variety and commonalities, the evening promises the sound of rich voices and magical moments.

POETRY SLAM for 11th Annual Downtown Eastside Heart of the City Festival 2014 in Vancouver on Nov 1 2014
Poetry
CARNEGIE’S 2nd POETRY SLAM!
Saturday November 1, 1pm – 2:30pm
Carnegie Theatre, 401 Main
Free
In celebration of the Carnegie newsletter and its long history of encouraging writers and poets in the Downtown Eastside, and in honour of our much loved friend Zaccheus Jackson (2013 Vancouver Slam Poetry Champion), we present Carnegie’s 2nd Poetry Slam! Have you slammed a poem before? You’ll have three minutes to say your poem. Memorize it, improvise it, rant or sing it out. Then five random audience members chosen to judge will give you a score. The rules still have to be decided on, so be prepared for surprises. Featured host and MC is Jillian Christmas. Be part of the audience – laugh, cheer, cry, clap – or step up and slam it, you know you want to! To quote intrepid newsletter editor Paul Taylor “Don’t let your greatness daunt you!”
