The performance chemistry was so strong between poet Alison Luterman and James Schattauer during their Valentine's concert that they're doing it again!
Alison Luterman will be reading poems from her newest collection Desire Zoo, as well as her two previous books, The Largest Possible Life and See How We Almost Fly.
Alison’s poems are vivid, frequently funny, very human vignettes of the love and trouble we get ourselves into. Alison is a member of the InterPlay-based WING IT! Performance Ensemble.
Singer songwriter, James Schattauer, will be performing music from his new CD called “ONE,” a collection of original songs that celebrate the many colors of love and compassion. James, a long-time InterPlayer, is from St. Paul, Minnesota.
