That’s My Word: Poetry & Monologues

Hosted by Jason Broux and 225 Theatre Collective we bring you an afternoon of poetry and monologues!

Our goal is to celebrate the African American tradition through performance art. The belief is that art not only examines the world we live in, but it can change it for the better. We present an opportunity for the African American community in Baton Rouge to perform pieces that will express different facets of the Black experience which is indeed the human experience. Performers sign up below.

DATE: Sunday, May 18th

TIME: 2PM

Location: 7338 Highland Rd. Baton Rouge 70808 (Across from Superior Grill)
