Poetry for the People: The June Jordan Experience

Fountain Theatre
5060 Fountain Avenue Hollywood

A bold, joyous theatrical celebration of one of America’s most fearless writers and human rights activists. Devised by Fountain Theatre artistic director Raymond O. Caldwell and composer Adrienne Torf, who was Jordan’s longtime collaborator and life partner, this award-winning production weaves together Jordan’s electric poetry with movement and music performed live on stage by Torf to illuminate the life and legacy of a woman who believed that poetry is a political act.
