Join us for "P)RAISING THE DEAD: This Is What a Poem Can Do: A Live-Action Radio Drama Celebrating National Poetry Month", “a surprising romp,” “hilarious,” and “poignant reflection” on being a poet through life’s most trying and tragic times. 

Based on the true story of Pacific Grove’s own California laureate, Poet in Residence Barbara Mossberg, commissioned by the City to write a poem for “Day of the Dead” at the Artisana Gallery. She didn’t want to do it—too squeamish about death--and then it turns out, she’s not the only one . . . An audience participation play, and as true for all theater, Cakes and Ale, with wine at 6:30 pm. Play is one hour. Reception follows.
