Here’s a sneak peak of some lyrics from “Zombie Prom Queen” that NYTI “Hell Gate” storyteller and artist A. King McCarty is performing at next week’s show! Get your tickets here.

Come hear the full song (and maybe sing along!) that is part of the forthcoming Prom Queens: Celebrating Prom Poems & Stories by Queens Writers anthology from Poets of Queens.

We’re doubly excited to also premeire a new textile art piece from NYTI alum and Poets of Queens curator, Olena Jennings inspired by the Prom Queens generative workshops, show, and upcoming anthlogy.

Don’t miss these two great NYTI alum artists!!
