Columbia's Literary Death Match
Silver Tongue, Columbia College's word-based reading series, presents a jammed packed lineup of literary insight and entertainment next Tuesday, April 27. At 2pm Opium Magazine's founding editor, Todd Zuniga, will lead the free Workshop: How to Start a Literary Publication offering way more useful advice than "post on Craig's List."
Opium's Literary Death Match will follow at 7pm featuring emerging Columbia College writers. A panel of judges including local Chicago writers Lindsay Hunter, Chris Bower, Robbie Q.Telfer and Jason Bredle provides witty commentary, critiquing the short (7 minutes or less) stories down to the merciful, final two contestants guaranteed to make you laugh...or else. Zuniga hosts the hilarity. To close the night, Speak Easy Ensemble, a comedic word performance group, takes the stage.
All events take place April 27 and are free and open to the public. Todd Zuniga's Workshop: How to Start a Literary Publication starts at 2pm in the Film Row Cinema, 1104 S. Wabash, 8th Floor.
Literary Death Match begins at 7pm in the Conaway Center, 1104 S. Wabash, 1st Floor, with Speak Easy Ensemble to follow.
