Mayhem Poets

"Let's go see a poetry show." That is a sentence rarely proclaimed and usually responded to with cringes and excuses. The Mayhem Poets are on a mission to change that. Having been dubbed "an amazing ride" by the New York Times, these theatre-trained, comedically-gifted, lyrical virtuosos seamlessly blend raw elements of hip hop, theatre, improv and stand-up comedy to tell gut-wrenching truths that leave audiences forever changed.

The Mayhem Poets are a mainstay for corporate functions and conferences having been the keynote presenters across the globe. They have created presentations for FIAT's Alternate Routes Campaign, Purina's Better With Pets Summit and The Jack London Gala in Glen Ellen California

The Mayhem Poet's unique approach to spoken word has landed them feature spots on The Today Show and Eyewitness News. Since then they've been touring internationally from legendary venues like Lincoln Center, the Apollo Theatre, and Broadway's New Victory Theatre; to thousands of universities, locals schools of all grades, as well as group homes and correctional facilities.
