Welcome to the Chicago Shakespeare Slam Hub! This year, we welcome over 20 schools from the Chicagoland area and beyond to build community across communities and compete for a chance to perform at CST. Here, you will find all things SLAM—program goals, the permission forms needed to participate, and resources to begin preparing your Scene and Dream rounds! Don’t forget to check out the upcoming Workshop, Regional Bout and deadline dates. If you have any questions, please contact the education department at [email protected].
