'Performance Poetry' is a dynamic way to bring poetry to life. Like plays, performance poems are specifically written to be presented before an audience. They are not meant to collect dust on a shelf. Performance poetry can often be extremely funny or quite touchingly sad. Performance poetry is largely designed to be presented by groups. It requires thinking of how the poems are to be presented,. No two groups will ever present in the same way as just as individuals perceive words differently, so do groups interpret the meaning of a poem differently. Performance poetry is an excellent way for people to learn to work together. It allows for exploration of language and basic presentation skills. In an age where the importance of how we present ourselves to others is crucial, performance poetry allows an individual to learn how to use voice in an interesting manner.
