A Spirited Performance
SpiritHouse will host an impromptu evening with spoken word artist Staceyann Chin and musician Doria Roberts.
Chin comes to D.C. fresh from her performance in Broadway's Def Poetry Jam. Her work has been featured on Pacifica radio as well as in Curve and the Village Voice. Roberts, a self-described "part-time activist" for social change, has performed at venues like LadyFest South and Lilith Fair. Her music has been described as an eclectic mix of jazz, funk, folk and other musical genres.
The show is at 8 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 3, at the Warehouse Theater, 1017 Seventh St. NW. For more information, call 202/548-7640.
SpiritHouse is a DC non-profit dedicated to the elimination of social injustice through the arts, research, reflection, dialogue and education. For more information, send an e-mail here.
