(Come and go as you please between acts)

Box Office information: 212.614.0505

Check www.bowerypoetry.com for updates on schedule and performers.

On a cabaret stage with club atmo, 13 separate acts will spin the way words and movement can mix, riff, flim, flip, and flam together (or apart). Some are long term collaborators; some are shotgunning for a juiced up afternoon of skates on, earwigging pizzazz.

Each asterisk lists either a solo or a collaborative group. Each performance will include both poetry and dance.

The program order is:

Starting at 4 PM:

* Jen Abrams

* Megan Boyd and Cathy Park Hong

* Johanna Walker

* Lee Ann Brown, Abby Child with K.J. Holmes,  and Edisa Weeks

Short Break

Pieces are approximately 10 minutes long.

We’ll end at 7pm or when the performers are done, whichever comes first!
