On February 23, a multitude of performers, organized and directed by Harrisburg's reigning poet laureate, Rick Kearns, will perform, well, interpret, poetry written by Marty Esworthy. Seating is limited, doors open at 6:45pm.
Esworthian poetries strive to construct/de-construct the living evolution of art, ethos, physics and ethnology. "His varied works (installations, object appreciation, wave theory, verbo-visualities and throat-singing) pin-ball between arts, audiology and Shock Performance to jangle limits of perception and to raise awareness of evaporating sound and mound continua."
Imagine the spirit of Dada, Duchamp, John Cage, Spike Jones, Peggy Guggenheim, Hugo Winterhalter, and frenetic memories of Polikushka lurking in accents yet unspoken.
Performers include Kearns, Kevyn Knox, Tru Selvey, Anna Jane, Jeanette Trout, John Catalano, Le Hinton, Jennifer Huff Dutson, Gillian Branstetter, Michael Lear-Olimpi, Mikaela Rylee Phillips and more. Esworthy will, presumably, sit and listen. O, what a night!
A measured open reading (7pm) will precede the madding feature.
