The Cabaret Theatre came alive with professors and students who shared their creativity through poems, short stories and prose, at the first of the fall’s Voice in Action readings and open mic Monday night.
Words such as charismatic, enthusiastic and encouraging could readily be used to describe Sean Bernard, Cathy Irwin and Gabriella Capraroiu, the trio of full-time professors recently hired within the modern languages department at the University of La Verne.
Dim lights, one mic and inspiration was all that was needed for senior Adrianna Gardner to keep the audience engaged in her powerful spoken words as she presented her senior thesis at 6 p.m. on Wednesday in the University’s Cabaret Theatre.
The University of La Verne and the surrounding communities’ finest poets, writers, photographers and artists will be spotlighted Wednesday night at this year’s Prism Review’s launch party.
