Title: On Black Mountain and the Poets' Theatre
Description: "Jonathan C. Creasy (editor of Black Mountain Poems (New Directions, 2019)) explores two remarkable artistic and educational experiments of the 20th century: Black Mountain College and the Cambridge-based Poets' Theatre. Distinct as they were, both reveal continuing concerns in art, poetry, performance and politics. The event culminates in the screening of several films by Mary Manning (introduction by Fanny Howe)."--Woodberry Poetry Room website (viewed 2019 October 16).
