This workshop will approach spoken word as a genre of writing composed with performance in mind. Together, we will talk about what makes a successful text and what makes a successful performer, learning from established poets and each other. The focus will not be on how one can fit into the spoken word or slam poetry scene, but instead on how each student's unique qualities and experiences can be highlighted and utilized by the genre. No experience required, just energy and interest!
