This is a 90-minute dynamic performance featuring original hip-hop and spoken word pieces written and performed by Desmond Curran. Desmond Curran, The "Traveling Troubadour," is a Spoken Word / Performance Artist currently living in Plymouth, Massachusetts. Born in Anchorage, Alaska, and having called various places home throughout his life, he incorporates his experiences with the kaleidoscope of people he's encountered into his writing (and performance). Informed by his lifelong love of the Sea and the Outdoors, Desmond creates a distinctively individual voice that examines many of today's most pressing issues: mental health, grief and isolation, social media, global instability, and climate change.
Entertainment will take center stage. Desmond will also utilize some of the time to explain and define hip hop and spoken word, and address any questions from parents and children. The performance will also serve as an ideal introduction for youth interested in the hip-hop and spoken-word workshops available to students in February.
