Jesse Laport (1991) has been on stage for years as musician, actor, host and poet. Since 2012 Laport fullfills the role of City Poet of Arnhem, combining this with organizing events for musicians and poets, working as online editor, touring through the 'Benelux' as a spoken word artist, giving workshops, and finishing Creative Writing in Art School.
