When you read your poetry to an audience, your poems deserve the very best reader they can get. This class will help you to become that reader.
In our 2-hour intensive, we will start by focusing on technical matters, improving your own vocal projection and your diction as a reader, then we will investigate interpretive matters such as defining the speaker of your poem and finding ways to embody that speaker and his or her relationship to the audience, and engagement with the situation. You will bring in several poems you have written and read them, we will then discuss.
