| Witness the power of words, rhythm, and healthy
personal expression with this dynamic collective of
young New York poet-performers who use meter and
rhyme, like the poets of old—but there’s nothing old
about their fresh blend of hip-hop
theater, pop culture references,
incisive social commentary, and
out-of-sight imagery! Engaging,
inspirational, age-appropriate, and
powerfully in tune with the real issues that students face each
day, the Mayhem Poets impart a
hip and positive message that
inspires future generations of
young people to study and
write poetry, while promoting
diversity, non-violence, and
strong self-esteem. |
