Infinite Sequels: Bringing Poetry to Life

Event Details

Event type: All Ages

How does one bring poetry to life?

Find out this October as poet David Stones performs Infinite Sequels, a one-man-show named after his poetry book of the same title. With the accompaniment of live violin and a rich musical soundtrack, David as The Poet will lead you through a life of love, ecstasy, longing, joy, sorrow and forgiveness……that is, the life of every person in the audience. The performance was lauded as a “brilliant and beautiful piece of theatre” by London Free Press. Q&A moderator and General Manager of Stratford Summer Music: Judy Matheson will interview David Stones after the performance.

What can you expect from this show?

• A show that combines the art of music, poetry and performance.
• A robust Q&A on the writing of the show; the curation and licensing of a soundtrack; performing to a live violin; the state of poetry in Canada today and the lonely mysteries of the poetic heart.
• Author meet and greet, and book signing following the show.

Who is this event for?

• Anyone with a serious or brewing interest in theatre, poetry, and performance art.
• People looking for a unique and riveting entertainment experience.
• People who simply wish to explore the spectrum of human possibility; the things we are and we could be.

About Infinite Sequels (the book)
Employing a range of poetic forms and undulations of mood and tempo, Infinite Sequels casts a unique and understandably frail beam of illumination on the joyous, sometimes pitted landscape of human experience.
