A CONNECTING COMMUNITIES COLLABORATION
"A globally flavored recipe that packs some punch lines." As he does in The Cooking Show Con Karimi & Castro, national poetry slam champion and Def Poetry Jam performer Robert Farid Karimi facilitates the discussion of social change and concepts of mixed culture with the community. Adults, teens, and children are invited to collaborate with Karimi to create a new multidisciplinary performance utilizing documentary theater, spoken word, movement, music, and humor that explores issues of mixed identity and the intersections of various cultures in Sheboygan. Robert Karimi will be in residence in the Arts/Industry program from January 2–February 23 through a Midwest Voices and Visions Fellowship, funded by the Joyce Foundation in collaboration with the Arts Center’s Arts/Industry program. |
