Exciting news – Recent graduate JUNIE EDWARDS (class of 2024) has written a play that will be receiving its world premiere this summer at Pillsbury House Theatre! It features rising SPCPA senior, DAIJA SCOTT and alum, JEREMIAH TULAY II. It runs July 18-21.
This choreopoem follows the story of 6 poet friends readying themselves for a slam poetry competition. When they take a break from rehearsing, they travel down a long and weighted path as they play a game confessing their deepest secrets and fears pertaining to the black community. This piece is an ode to the voices of the younger black generations.
