Her Voice – March

The fifth play in the Her Voice series is a free professional reading of Dear Elizabeth by Sarah Ruhl.

Monday, March 19th at 7PM at the ASU Kerr Cultural Center.
DIRECTOR: Jodie Weiss
CAST: TBA

SYNOPSIS:  Based on the compiled letters between poets Robert Lowell and Elizabeth Bishop, Sarah Ruhl expresses the beauty in simple correspondence. Brought to life by reading Words in Air: The Complete Correspondence Between Elizabeth Bishop and Robert Lowell, Ruhl maps the relationship of the two poets from first meeting to an abbrieviated affair and the turmoil of their lives in between.
