English and Drama students showcase their spoken-word live on stage
Students at the University of Toronto Mississauga had the chance to take a unique course this past semester, learning all about the art of spoken word.
The course, taught by poet and U of T Mississauga lecturer Andrea Thompson, aims to cultivate students' skill in the "empowering art form," Thompson says.
“The goal is to create a transformative experience that changes students’ lives.”
The students in the third-year course are set to show off what they learned at a showcase at the MiST Theatre on April 11.
