Show on the way: statement of intention

On October 6, I will be doing a show at the Perishable Theatre in Providence.

It’ll be a Duende show, and I’m planning to use a bunch of the new stuff I’ve been posting lately as the basis for the show, along with a couple of older pieces I think will fit the theme.

It’ll be called “Americanized.” I plan to create a roughly 45 minute set of poems set to Faro’s music that will examine what it means to be American right now, in all the glory and pain of the term, with the contradictions intact.

It’ll include a chapbook release and a new CD.

It’s ambitious, it’s scary, and it feels like the right thing at the right time.
