Poetry West will offer a Poetry Month Performance Workshop at the Woerner Center on the Colorado College campus, Room 213, 902 N. Cascade Avenue led by Ashley Crockett, performance poet and actress. Crockett asks participants to memorize a piece of their own writing they would like to perform, a minimum of 10 lines and maximum of one page long. Crockett will coach members to perform effectively, offering tips for how to prepare for performance, limbering up the speaking voice, attending to the body, and managing the voice and energy. The workshop is open to the public and free of charge. Crockett has led performance workshops in the past, and they've been a highlight.

Mia, who teaches in the Writing Program at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, will focus on lyric essays, those prose forms that are informed by poetry. She's an emerging poet, a gifted teacher, and a generous resource person.
