Underground Poetry Jam

July 9 – July 30, 2010

Hosted by: Carla Stillwell

That’s “jam,” and not “slam,” because a "jam" is a virtual love fest. Poets present their art in a non-competitive environment without fear or ridicule. Come underground and share the experience.

MPAACT Shows

MPAACT consistently produces a season of outstanding world premiere productions. Through these productions, it exposes audiences to stories seldom told on America’s stages. From the story of three immigrant sisters from Ethiopia, to a fifty-somethings musings on life, to the portrait of a young African American man on his first trip to Africa, MPAACT strives to be a company where artists can express and audiences can experience a myriad of realities of Black life.
