Together, their combined voices and typewriter sounds created a symphony of words and noises. This is Hannah Cut In, an original piece created by Professor Harryman and originally performed for the Poets Theater 2017 conference at UC Berkeley.

Swoop’s is not as busy as an Eagle Café like those at Pray-Harrold and the College of Business. This location on campus is quiet but has shelves full of valuables at no cost to you.
