"A new play looks at the camaraderie between tragic poets Sylvia Plath and Anne Sexton."
Not surprisingly, due to its award-winning popularity, the highly literate theatre company will alternate performances featuring another of the world's greatest uniquely original one-of-a-kind poets non-pareil, Leonard Cohen:
In between the show’s spoken passages, all four characters [Sexton, Plath, and respective SOs] engage in dance-like interludes, set to a jazzy score by composer Richard McDowell that gives kinetic expression to their relationships. It’s the same poetry-in-motion technique the Rabbits used for their 1990s hit, Doing Leonard Cohen, a work they’re reviving at the Young Centre to alternate with Sylvia Plath. The movement in both shows was staged by Clarke, who is also a dancer-choreographer and author of the Rabbits' distinctive physical style.
Talk not-to-miss bliss! Kiss-kiss :)!
