THIS WORKSHOP RUNS JULY 20 THROUGH 23 FROM 9:30AM – 12:30PM AT THE RIDGEFIELD PLAYHOUSE. TUITION IS $300 AND INCLUDES A COMPOSITION NOTEBOOK AND PERFORMANCE T-SHIRT. The Ridgefield Playhouse is launching its first Slam Poetry Summer Workshop led by Performance Poet Mikumari Caihye (M.C.) for young people going into grades 5-8. Spots are limited, sign up now! M.C.’s Philosophy This workshop is not about teaching poetry, it’s about unleashing it. The goal is to encourage young people to see language as a playground, to trust their inner voice, and to celebrate the power of words to tell the truth, heal, and connect. Core Values threaded throughout: Imagination over imitation. There are no “wrong” poems. Community over competition: SLAM Poetry is a conversation, not a contest. Progress over perfection: truth and presence matter more than polish. Courage of comfort: Every voice belongs.
