Lipstick Wars Poetry Slam – Juneteenth Edition Kentucky Center for the Performing Arts Free | 7-10 p.m. Slam poetry is a unique and powerful art form. If you’ve never seen it live, now’s your chance.

Late Night Shakes Central Park Free | 10:30-11 p.m. A Shakespeare play not written by Shakespeare (nor nearly as long as his real shows) — this one’s all made up, thanks to Louisville Improvisors. You can catch a real Shakespeare show (“Macbeth”) right beforehand, though.
