Beny Blaq Entertainment will present a spoken word production entitled SILENCE IS FORBIDDEN. This event will feature a theatre style performance coupled with riveting music. The event will feature three artists whose mastery of the oral art form has been displayed before millions across the country as they have featured on the HBO series Def Poetry Jam, produced by Russell Simmons. These artists are Will da Real One from Miami, Florida, Georgia Me from Atlanta, Georgia and Black Ice, also a Koch Recording artist, from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In addition, three times Apollo Winner and DC's own Messiah will perform along with Baltimore's award nominated Sir Reign. The event will be hosted by 2007 NUSPA (National Underground Spokenword Poetry Award) Host of the Year, Komplex. CEO/Founder of Beny Blaq Entertainment and 2007 NUSPA Male Performer of the Year, Beny Blaq, commented, "It is important for the city to have this type of event that highlights the art form at its very best. This will be better than the typical experience of an "open mic night" and will also be a way to uplift and encourage future talent. Spoken word appeals to the mind and prompts positive action while also entertaining. This event will be both positive and thoroughly entertaining." Tickets for the event are $20 in advance and $30 if purchased at the theatre on the night of the event.
