Rules Made & Broken
A Reading On the Theme
Michael Gushue - Kim Roberts
Sue Scheid - Dan Vera

Wednesday, February 13th

The Red Reading
We asked our audience at the January Reading for a theme for this reading.
Frederick Nunley, a BAWA* Visual artist suggested a reading around a color.
Red seemed to be the consensus.
What arose astounded us. And no, it wasn't Valentine's Day related.

Wednesday, March 12th

Lions & Lambs
Little lamb who made thee? & "The Lion for Real"
were just some of the interpretations
of this theme of supposed opposites.

Wednesday, April 9th

Fool's
Paradise

Poetry of Whimsy, Humor and Levity
(and these are not necessarily the same thing... )
An evening of great poetry in a humorous vein... maybe.
