Hello! 

Spring’s just around the corner, so I’ve been busy promoting for summer and fall: so far, I’m booked in South Jersey and Delaware, in June and July;  Massachusetts , Rhode Island, and likely Illinois, in August and September; NY in December; and Kansas next spring, gleefully presenting Warren Kliewer’s rich spoken-word performance PLACES, PLEASE, ACT ONE.  

Coming up in March:

Three selections from Elsie Singmaster’s classic Gettysburg—stories of the Red Harvest and the Aftermath:

  In Singmaster’s powerful and specific exploration of a Civil War icon’s physical and emotional terrain, fictional townswoman Mary Bowman lives the war and its legacy—from the first shots at Willoughby Run to the consolation of Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address, to the country’s healing a half century on. Published in 1913, on the eve of another fateful cataclysm: World War I.

“Luminous!” “Revelatory!” “Gettysburg is an eye-opening evening.” “A touching, intimate portrait of the personal toll of war.” “Truly a treasure.”

I’m touring a dozen (give or take :-) different programs, on offer coast-to-coast.
