Mantra II: ILL-Literacy and Anida Yoeu Esguerra

I've been asked to emcee an event next Friday:

Mantra Part II: iLL-Literacy and Anida Esguerra

The more I read up on artists coming, the more impressed I get.

iLL-Literacy is a freakishly talented group of four college students and grads from California. They put on a unique theatrical presentation of poetry and music that people are super excited about. Many of the locals who saw them in Washington, D.C. recently can't stop talking about them.

The other artist coming is the Atomic Shogun, Anida Esguerra. Ha, Atomic Shogun, what a cool name. Reminds me I haven't eaten sushi in a long time. I think her website sums it up pretty well:

"Esguerra uses an interdisciplinary approach to creating art which mixes the visual, spoken and written into performed explorations of hybrid identities."

It's FREE, so I hope all of you get to come out:
March 10th
6:00 pm
Goodwin Hall

Did I mention Free?
