Surprise Showcase

Time to go out with yet another Overload bang. It’s been an incredible ten days and now it’s time to let our hair down and celebrate! Hosted by the ingenious Santo Cazzati and rock star poet Steve Smart, the Surprise Showcase has become a favourite staple of the Overload diet. 

Back in June we announced the new round of Overload Awards, including the Shelton Lea for best performance. Some of the shortlisted nominees, will be part of this secret line up.

Enjoy this feast before we announce the Awards, presented in partnership with the Clifton Hill/North Fitzroy Community Bank (Bendigo Bank). With over $2000 worth of cash prizes this year, Overload is taking the chance to recognise excellence across all fields of spoken word in 2010. More details on The awards on page.

You can have your say by nominating performers throughout the festival for the Shelton Lea Award.

Help us celebrate with poetry, music and the uber cool vibe of the hippest joint in Smith Street today.
