Hello WordStage Friends and Followers!
I recently received copies of the Cuyahoga County Library’s Program Evaluation forms written during our recent tour of our Walt Whitman – ‘ I Sing the Body Electric” tour. I and the members of my ensemble who participate in these performances were pleased and delighted by the many responses from which these are culled. i would like to include them here – and of course , they will be included on our new for 2014-15 designed web site by the amazing and talented Graphic Artist, Mr. Ken Schworm.
Whitman Review quotes from the CCPL audiences:
‘Delightful program – the poetry and music enhanced each other – Both were a celebration of an American Original.”
“A Lovely, educational evening – Thank you”!
“Book more (programs) like this! – Celebrate words. This group is the BEST – very talented.”
“This was one of the best shows we have seen here at the library. Well done. Very professional and great quality of art/work/performance.”
“Beautiful, wonderful, THANK YOU!!”
“Very different and enjoyable – interesting and educational.”
“More poetry and music programs – More WordStage!”
Hope to see you at another WordStage performance in the very near future!
Mr Tavcar and I met briefly at the reception on opening night of “Civil War Christmas”. I asked if he presented “Walt Whitman-I Sing the Body Electric” at Berea’s library. I appreciated and LOVED that performance so much! Whitman is my favorite poet and to hear Mr. Tavcar’s readings let me speechless…he truly was Walt Whitman. (AND…his multi-character performance In Dobama Theater’s “Civil War Christmas” was moving.) I am so looking forward to the Civil War Love Letters and the James Thurber performance in the spring.
