Pulitzer Prize-winning poet and author Tyehimba Jess reads selections from his book “Olio” to students. “Olio” features the stories of black entertainers in the 19th and 20th centuries. Jess presented a series of five syncopated sonnets on twins Millie and Christine McKoy, who were some of the characters. “As a creative writer, I have never seen anything presented in the way he did. He presented concrete poetry as a body, rather than just a piece of literature,” communications junior Elise Nau said. “He didn’t tell the stories of others; he embodied them.”

Theatre senior Sabrina Santana sings “Breathe” from the Broadway musical “In the Heights.”. Santana chose a piece from “In the Heights” because she could relate to the musical’s Puerto Rican origin. “I was so proud of myself after I found out I received a superior [at the International Thespian Society District Festival] because this was a song that is very personal to me as a performer and something I’ve connected to for quite some time,” Santana said. “I finally got the chance to tell this story and it was a very exciting day for me.”
