The Poets' Theatre II: GILGAMESH
Poet: Yusef Komunyakaa
Featured Poets:Chad Gracia
April 28, 2008, 8 p.m.
The 92nd Street Y Unterberg Poetry Center, 1395 Lexington Avenue, New York, NY
Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Yusef Komunyakaa and dramaturge Chad Gracia have produced the first dramatic adaptation of the Sumerian epic GILGAMESH. Jane Hirshfield called their work "fiercely brilliant in language and conception, uniquely stripped and centered for our own times." Mr. Scanlan's productions for the Poetry Center include DANTE'S INFERNO and SAMUEL BECKETT AT 100: THREE PLAYS.
