You only have to hear spoken word virtuoso Shane Koyczan once and you’re hooked--humane, furious, sexy, political, tragic, and so funny you’ll be laughing through your tears.  

Koyczan’s performances--thrillingly rich, fast and cool-- have brought audiences to their feet in New York, London, Edinburgh, Sydney, Auckland, and Los Angeles.  Winner of the US Slam Poetry Championship and Canadian Spoken Word Olympics, he has been   featured on BRAVO television, and NPR, BBC, CBC, and ABC (Australia) radio.  His first published collection, Visiting Hours, was the only work of poetry selected by both the Guardian and the Globe and Mail for their Best Books of the Year lists.
