We chat with Nisha Patel and Sheri Somerville about BODY OF WORDS, the collaborative performance piece that is being streamed online as part of SkirtsAfire Reimagined. We cover how their collaboration came about, what audiences can expect, and also how the pandemic has effected them, from performing poetry for an audience of one to how a ballet company safely rehearses in this wild new world.

Also discussed in this episode:
• Nisha's open letter to Jason Kenney
• SkirtsAFire, running March 4-14
• Body of Words tickets
• Ballet Edmonton
• Writer in Residence (WiR) program at Strathcona Library
