ROBERT FROST:
THIS VERSE BUSINESS A BENEFIT FOR THE HARBOR STAGE by A.M. Dolan original direction by Gus Kaikkonen Featuring Gordon Clapp Emmy-winner (NYPD Blue) and Tony-nominee, Gordon Clapp, stars as poet Robert Frost, who barded around the country for nearly 50 years giving sold-out talks to mixed crowds of poetry readers and non-readers alike. A beguiling rascal on the platform, the poet re-lives his verse from memory, relates his “wild surmises” on science, politics, religion, and his beliefs about art. Inviting us home, he shares losses and regrets, speaks of his public image and of how he understands himself, then sits down to write. |
