A.A.C. Presents Something to Keep Me Vertical by Monica Prince

 
Wednesday October, 16 at 8pm Monica Prince presents "Something to Keep Me Vertical" a choreopoem. Choreopoems blend poetry and dance to create an artistic experience unlike any brought to the Poetry Jamz stage before. 
"In an attempt to showcase love at its purest form -- at the very beginning, after years of adoration, and how it transforms into something all-consuming -- this choreopoem includes dance, music, artist renditions, and, of course, performance poetry all blended together. From break-ups to marriages, abusive love to honest love, watch as this multitude of voices come together to try and define what love isn't, what we think it might be, and hopefully, what it really is." 
 Poetry Jamz is a free event brought you by Art as an Agent for Change, Inc.
