Poetic Lyricism: Body Language, co-presented by Poetic Theater Productions and Musical Theatre Factory, will feature new collaborations merging poetry, music, and choreography. Poetic Lyricism explores the intersection of poetry and musical theater, and serves as an experimental lab for developing new work. Artists will present short devised pieces set to live music in an environment that supports and enhances collaboration as well as the lyrical possibilities of spoken word and body.
