Ten poets have been chosen and invited as semi-finalists to a competition that could land them on the Hammer Theatre stage this spring. Semi-finalists have already submitted video and text for their work, but now we’ll get to see how they perform live. Winners of this competition will go on to perform in the finals on March 22. There, they will be judged by award-winning poet and recently appointed Santa Clara County poet laureate Mighty Mike McGee. The top three in both competitions will receive cash prizes and be invited to perform at the Legacy of Poetry Day Festival at the Hammer in April. (SP)
