1.) Performing at “Pennies in the Park” Sunday, June 25th, 11am to 3pm
I will be performing mime at “Pennies in the Park” an outdoor benefit for the Brookline Community Center for the Arts (BCCA), in the park in front of the Edward Devotion School, 345 Harvard Avenue, in Brookline.
Take part in this FUNdraiser by gathering your small change and donating it to BCCA's New Building Campaign
( http://www.bccaonline.com/support/NewBuildingCampaign.html ).
I will be on stage at 11:20am and 1:45pm. Other performances will include breakdancing, Kung Fu demonstrations and other presentations by BCCA faculty!
The Edward Devotion School is accessible by T by way of the Harvard Avenue stop on the B Line, the Coolidge Corner stop on the C Line and the 66 Bus.
Attendance is $free.

3.) Review of “Becoming Fire.”
Doug Holder, publisher of the Ibbetson Street Press, has posted a review of “Becoming Fire” (Andover Newton Publications) in which my poem, “A Child’s Trip Through the Underworld” is quoted at length.

Some of you may recognize “A Child’s Trip Through the Underworld” as the basis for a performance piece of mine, others may have read an earlier version published in “Out of the Blue Writers Unite” (Crooked River Press, 2003)
