Catalyst presents a performance poetry competition, cut-throat reality style. Stranded before a live audience, 10 poets have only their guts and wits to protect them as they endure a series of challenges for the title of Survivor Poet 2014. Who will be sent to Exile Island? Who will find the hidden immunity idol? With cameos from your host, Ciarán Fox, and the judges, Doc Drumheller, Fiona Farrell and Ben Brown.

Auditions will be held at the Catalyst Poetry Open Mic Night, Twisted Hop, 616 Ferry Road, Woolston, 5 August, at 7pm. catalystnz.blogspot.com or email Doc Drumheller at catalyst_queries@yahoo.com.
