Dive deeper into the core values of UNLOCKING VOICES—from self-expression and
resilience to emotional intelligence and communication. Packed with lessons, learning,
and laughter, this course builds connection and confidence every step of the way.
Participants work weekly with Poetri himself—honing their craft, finding their voice, and
learning how to share it with the world. After 10 powerful weeks, they’ll perform their
original pieces in a Broadway-style showcase for friends, family, and the community. It’s
not just a performance—it’s a life-changing moment of truth, courage, and celebration.
When they’re not on stage, they’re still making noise. Here’s what our comedians are up to behind the curtain.
