“a kaleidoscope of speech and movement, poetry and dance”
“linguistics of a body's language”
"uncategorizable dance piece"
An absurdist choreo-literary-logistics exercise in poetic form, Bad Poetry is part lecture-demo, part dance performance, part queer clown turn, and a testament to how loving your own bad poetry can lead to self-acceptance.
For two performances only, October 30 & 31, 2026. Presented by Public Energy Performing Arts at Theatre on King, 171 King Street, Peterborough, ON K9J 2R8.
