WESTWOOD, Calif. - Aug. 22, 2015 - PRLog -- Wax Poetic L.A. is welcoming local Los Angeles poets to come read original work in front of a live audience.  Participants will also get a chance to read selected poetry of their choice; however, only poets who read their own original work will be able to compete in a contest. Prizes will be given out at the end of the night for best performance and poet.

"We want to give local Los Angeles poets another platform to perform and receive feedback on their work," said Michael P Naughton, co-producer of Wax Poetic L.A.. "So if you think you can 'Wax Poetic' we want you to join us and share in the experience."  Co-producer Donna Novak went on to say, "We did something similar to this in Palm Springs two years ago through our company 13 Hands Publications, and everyone had a blast.  We wanted to share the experience in Los Angeles."

The event space is limited, so early registration is recommended.  The fee is $10 if you reserve your seat or $15 at the door.  Wax Poetic L.A. cannot ensure walk-ins will be allowed admittance, so they recommend that poets sign up early. Everyone who attends will have an opportunity to participate. Poems are limited to 3 minutes. Doors open at 9:00 p.m. and there will be no waiting in line, simply present your proof of payment for entry.
