Held at the historic Playhouse Theater, this final Individual — a.k.a. INDY— competition is the culmination of month-long slam events.  Join hundreds of other Chicagoans for any evening of youth spoken word. Tickets are available online at www.youngchicagoauthors.org. 

Louder Than A Bomb (LTAB), is the largest youth poetry slam in the world. Over 1,000 youth from more than 100 Chicago land area schools will come together for one month (feb 15th – mar 15th 2014) to participate in an Olympic style poetry competition, in hopes of being one of the four teams on finals stage.
