After a two month residency with spoken word artist, Desdamona, Kennedy Nobel Language Arts students composed original spoken word poems on a topic of their choice.
"Spoken word is a performance art that is word based. It is an oral art that focuses on the aesthetics of word play, intonation, and voice inflection."
On May 22, students from Honors 9 English classes, including the Nobel section, and interested guests met at the Mugshots coffee shop in Bloomington for a spoken word open mic night. The students were inspiring, and their poems had an emotional impact on the audience.
I am really glad I got to attend. I was wowed by the performances and look forward to more open mic nights!
