“An Intimate Evening with Dancing Tongue”
When: November 14, 2009
Where: Paperbacks Plus

The multi-media performance poetry troupe Dancing Tongue, the creators of the recent Literary Cabaret

series at the Undermain Theatre (with its cutting edge mixture of spoken word, music, performance, movement and video)

will present a causal evening of entertainment in the intimate confines of the upstairs lounge of Paperbacks Plus.

Join Tim Cloward, Lisa Huffaker, Fran Carris, Richard Allen & Kim Corbet for a thought-provoking experience that will once again demonstrate that literature is, indeed, a lively art.

John “Survivor” Blake
When: November 13, 2009
Where: Cafe Madrid

John “Survivor” Blake’s nickname is no idle moniker. He has truly survived hellish circumstances and gone on to make work that, in the words of Carlos Andres Gomez, pulls “the reader or listener into the heart of his raw, fragmented truth of unshakeable power. He understands the incredible responsibility of being an artist, as much as anyone I have ever known.”
