Two NYC Events Next Week
Next week, I'm curating a mixed-genre reading of emerging queer writers, and I'm performing in a fun show that combines poetry and improv. If you're in the NYC area, I'd love to see you at one or both!
UNDER THE INFLUENCE
The process is collaboration between poets and improvisers. The product is a unique artistic experience. Each week, the cast of Under the Influence invites a guest poet to read his or her original work. The actors, unfamiliar with the text, then perform scenes inspired by anything from a single word to an image to a tone that is set by the voice of the reader. The result is a performance in which various artists are truly affected by one another in a new way.The cast includes Magnet instructor Jean Villepique, Becky Drysdale, Matt Evans, George Basil, Rylan Morrison and Mark Grenier
