In this funny and thought provoking talk from TEDxAarhus, 2019, Emma Elisabeth Holtet shares her fascination with the power of spoken word and how all creation is in some ways a recreation of that which came before.
Slam Poetry is a brilliant performance format for a restless individual — within each short performance, you can be whoever you want to be. After discovering Poetry Slam and having performed for only a year Emma Elisabeth Holtet became “Aarhus Poetry Slam Champion” and later won the 2019 “English Poetry Slam Copenhagen Cup”. She is a trained performer from The London School of Dramatic Arts, and Bachelor of Arts from Copenhagen University.
