Music and poetry combine as the Lyric Café Players take the stage to speak their minds and expound on some of the day's most pressing issues. Hosts Gary Dourdan and Malcolm-Jamal Warner keep the proceedings moving along at a rapid fire pace as nineteen poets including Kim Fields, Ghetto Spear, and Monica Calhoun step up to the microphone, and six bands including Floetry, Stew, and Medusa offer infections musical interludes.
