We brought out the Bard's play and performed it once in Barnes and Noble Astor Place, NYC. I was reminded of this as I dug out the book "Poetry In Motion" for my February Facebook poetry sharing that you can contribute to, by friending me and posting lines from poetry that has inspired you. If you are so inspired to , by your free will.
Does anyone remember the mural that the Barnes and Noble Astor Place had along the stairwell and cafe? All of dead writers mostly, predominantly celebrating deceased male writers, save perhaps to Emily Dickinson. This was a fact. Facts are important.
The time of the performance was spring 1997, the place was New York City. The reason was passion. The great thing was , I had no , yup that is zero formal Shakespeare training, the ensemble was chock full of devoted players.
Step up to the plate and hit the ball.
I still love books, have had formal Shakespeare training, and love a good crack at the plate.
Home plate that is.
Oh , the role I played was Viola. We also performed this play off broadway at La MaMa .
It's on my resume.
