Prose & Poetry
Prose & Poetry, or Prose-Poetry is a competitive speech event practiced by state high-school forensics or debating associations such as the Ohio High School Speech League, but not by the National Forensic League (NFL). The NFL does have consolation events in Prose Interpretation and Poetry Interpretation at the National Tournament, but these are only open to competitors who qualified in other events and were eliminated before the late elimination rounds.
Competitors in Prose & Poetry (short form: P-P) read an unmemorized ten-minute cutting of prose and poetry. Competition rules are the same as for NFL interpretation events.
