Spoken word poet Caleb Miller White flew onto our radar at Theatre of Note's 2022 poetry slam, where he was a semi-finalist. Beyond impressed with his pieces and performance, we invited him as a featured poet in Towne Street's Theatre Sum Poetry at Stella Adler last July. Caleb is a writer, actor, and producer based in Los Angeles, CA and originally from Texas. His love of spoken word began in 2016 during a 5-year stint in New York City studying sketch writing and comedy improv. Since then, Caleb has cultivated a distinct poetic style, one he describes as "incorporating punchy rap, clever comedy, and intimate vulnerability to amplify his unique perspective and voice."
