A choreopoem is a form of dramatic expression that combines poetry, dance, music, and song. The term was first coined in 1975 by American writer Ntozake Shange in a description of her work, For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide / When the Rainbow Is Enuf. Shange's attempt to depart from traditional western poetry and storytelling resulted in a new art form that doesn't contain specific plot elements or characters, but instead focuses on creating an emotional response from the audience. In Shange's work, nontraditional spelling and African American Vernacular English are aspects of this genre that differ from traditional American literature. She emphasizes the importance of movement and nonverbal communication throughout the choreopoem so that it is able to function as a theatrical

| - A choreopoem is a form of dramatic expression that combines poetry, dance, music, and song. The term was first coined in 1975 by American writer Ntozake Shange in a description of her work, For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide / When the Rainbow Is Enuf. Shange's attempt to depart from traditional western poetry and storytelling resulted in a new art form that doesn't contain specific plot elements or characters, but instead focuses on creating an emotional response from the audience. In Shange's work, nontraditional spelling and African American Vernacular English are aspects of this genre that differ from traditional American literature. She emphasizes the importance of movement and nonverbal communication throughout the choreopoem so that it is able to function as a theatrical piece rather than being limited to poetry or dance. The "XX Chromosome Genome Project" by S. Ann Johnson is a contemporary example of a choreopoem. It combines poetry, song and dance to illuminate the commonalities and differences between women of various cultures. In this choreopoem, Johnson writes about eight women in search of self-acceptance and liberation. These colorfully dressed women, who are named after flavors of foods, represent international cultures around the world through music, spoken word, and movement. Another contemporary artist championing the choreopoem is Monica Prince, author of How to Exterminate the Black Woman ([PANK], 2020), and the forthcoming Roadmap (SFWP 2023). Prince teaches the art of the choreopoem at Susquehanna University. (en)

Nel lavoro della Shange l'ortografia non tradizionale e il vernacolo sono aspetti di questo genere che differiscono dalla letteratura americana tradizionale. Lei sottolinea l'importanza del movimento e della comunicazione non verbale in tutto il choreopoem in modo che sia in grado di funzionare come un pezzo teatrale piuttosto che essere limitato alla poesia o alla danza. Il "XX Chromosome Genome Project" di S. Ann Johnson è un moderno esempio di choreopoem. Combina poesia, canto e danza per illuminare i punti in comune e le differenze tra donne di varie culture. In questo choreopoem la Johnson scrive di otto donne in cerca di auto-accettazione e liberazione. Queste donne vestite con colori vivaci, che prendono il nome da sapori di cibi, rappresentano culture internazionali in tutto il mondo attraverso la musica, la parola e il movimento. (it)
