Poetry in Motion.

Rhythm & Rhyme

Rhythm & Rhyme is Noveltease Theatre’s cabaret series fusing poetry, burlesque, and live music. Each salon focuses on a different poetic movement, with a rotating cast of burlesque performers, bands, and featured poets to bring salacious sonnets, ribald rhymes, and comely cantos to life in an atmosphere of frivolity and intellectual curiosity.

Check out the galleries below for examples of how we put poetry into motion.
