At 11:15 Mark talks with Kansas City-based spoken word poet, women’s rights & LGBT activist, published author, founder and host of KC Poetry Slam, Jen Harris about her new one-woman-show, Lust & Disdain. Her show is described as, “a train wreck of poorly memorized monologues, dark stand up comedy and emotionally unsettling slam poetry. Jen Harris explores the extremes she has gone to in search of and in spite of love.” The show will have four performances, February 3 and 4, at 8:00 pm and 11:00 pm, at The Outburst, 1715 Wyandotte Street, Kansas City, Missouri.
