About this show

Literary Death Match returns to LA with a bang, with a four-show Elysian Theatre residency that is fully intended to CHANGE YOUR LIFE.


Part literary event, part comedy show, part game show, LDM — which has done 550 events in 73 cities around the world — features 4 of today’s finest writers who read their own work before a panel of 3 celebrity judges. The judges crack wise in response, then select 2 writers to go to the finals. Those two compete in a "vaguely literary game" to decide who will be crowned Literary Death Match Champion.


TL;DR: LDM is the most fun you will ever have, even if you're illiterate. Do not miss it.


Adrian Todd Zuniga host and creator of Literary Death Match. An award-nominated novelist, and WGA Award-nominated screenwriter, he's writer/director of the forthcoming feature documentary THE HEART IS MADE TO BE BROKEN. (@adriantoddzuniga)
