Event Description:

Program of Oral Interpretation - POI is a program of oral interpretation of thematically-linked selections chosen from two or three genres: prose, poetry, drama (plays). At least two pieces of literature that represent at least two separate genres must be used, and competitors are encouraged to devote approximately equal times to each of the genres used in the program. The title and author of all selections must be verbally identified in either the introduction and/or transitional phrases. The use of a printed manuscript during the performance is required. The intact manuscript may be used by the contestant as a prop, so long as it remains in the contestant’s control at all times.
