Open Mic Featuring Stephen Willems

October 26, 2011

Terpoets hosted an open mic on October 11th that featured poet, Stephen Willems. “I thought [the night] was really fun,” said audience member, Becca Arsham. “I liked that there was a diverse group of performers, like a comedian, singers, and poets. There were also a bunch of new performers, which was great!”

After the open mic, Stephen Willems took the stage. Tyler Kutner, one of the Jimenez-Porter Writers’ House students said of Willems, “He’s embraced that unpredictable spark of showmanship I think too many poets shy away from or over emphasize. Every sound, word, and movement felt natural. I’m glad he brought us along for the ride.”
