Pairs of poetry pen pals take the stage to perform excerpts of their correspondence. Poetry collective, Monday Press, has paired up members of the community to write to one another in hopes of building unlikely friendships and rekindling the magic of receiving mail from an acquaintance. You’ve Got Mail curates spoken word performances from these pen pals, delivered on stage together.
Pay what you can: $0-10
