Page and Stage: Teen Spoken Word

3:45pm Old South Mary Norton 645 Boylston Street

The talented teens from Mass LEAP are back again! They will bring their blend of powerful emotion, provocative ideas, and rhythmic words to create a stirring experience that straddles the space between poetry and storytelling. The host for this exciting session, Regie Gibson, winner of the 1998 National Slam Competition, will kick off the proceedings with a spoken word performance. Sponsored by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt.
