A classic music album is chosen and poets are assigned a song from the album to create a new piece of work for the show. \nIn this edition of Mashed Poetics\, the 1983 self-titled album by Violent Femmes will be performed live with poets presented new works inspired by the music between each song. \nCome for dinner and stay late.

There is an ATM located directly across the street. \nThis show may contain strong language\, controversial issues\, and words that make you re-evaluate your life.
