The Los Angeles Poverty Department, based in downtown L.A.'s Skid Row, creates art inspired by community stories. The performance group is made of many homeless and formerly homeless residents – including Kevin Michael Key, a former lawyer turned community activist. Stephanie Case talked to Key about his transition into the world of performance and creating an honest Skid Row narrative.
