For the rappers, actors, poets, performers, orators, playwrights and song birds: #BARS is where verse and theater come together. Come create, learn, develop & innovate firmly at the center. The poetry of speech is what brings it all together.

The #BARS Workshop is a lab series created by artists Rafael Casal & Daveed Diggs, to serve as a space for artists to investigate the intersection between contemporary verse and Theater.
