POETRYSPORTS at the BONFIRE Festival
Friday, April 4, 2025
9:30pm to 10:00pm
Part of: Edmonton Poetry Festival

Rapid Fire Theatre’s ensemble members will enthrall as comedic improv warriors Ahmed “Knowmadic” Ali and Megan Dart take each other on in TEAM COMBAT. Like Theatresports – but with poetics for fuel, rhymes for skin, and a burning desire to win – you are invited to judge the teams’ output…and your judgement must be stern, harsh, and austere.
The program will culminate with the presentation of laurels.
BONFIRE is Rapid Fire Theatre’s annual festival where our talented ensemble debuts a ton of fresh, exciting, and innovative shows — like POETRYSPORTS. Be part of the excitement and experience the next big thing in live performance!
Admission & Registration: Pay-what-you-will. Stay tuned for a link to purchase your tickets and register through!
