Coming Weekends of February 14 & 21
Dear Elizabeth by Sarah Ruhl
|
Bishop and Lowell's carefully built, platonic poetic worlds are intruded on constantly by the vagaries of life and body. And through such sudden disturbances, their letters were like lanterns sent to each other across long distance.-- excerpt from Sarah Ruhl's prologue on Bishop and Lowell's letters.
|
Starring Brian Schuth and Jenny Smith, Dear Elizabeth is "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 abbreviated affair and the turmoil of their lives in between." (from Samuel French Publisher)
