Great news from Long Beach folks!
The speak easy thrill fest was the best show I have ever put on. Thank you for dancing to lasers and listening to the buttloads of poetry talent.
I have been commissioned to do the coolest thing I have ever done.
I have been asked to write a new 40 minute long poem for the prestigious Noord Danse Collective to Dance to
and they also asked that I use some of the money to hire musicians of my liking to compose new music for it to
for Juliard choreographer Stephen Shropshire to work with.
We just turned in our rough draft and I have been trying out some pieces here and there. I will be trying out a few of these pieces from my first epic poem attempt July 31
with some music at the Portland Poetry Slam.
It is called Journey of Impossible Lovers. Written for the experience called INSTRUMENTAL
Once these 2011 and 2012 european dates have been completed
we will be reaching out to all of you to see if you can recommend any opera houses or large performance art theaters for us to bring it to.
Here is a sample of what they did last year.
Please come if you are anywhere near holland or germany. I will also be touring the UK and Germany for the first time in many years solo, trying out this new work and some translated pieces. I can’t wait.
