Word Plays: Sunshine and Moonshine

Walt Whitman wrote “Keep your face always toward the sunshine—and shadows will fall behind you.”

Lucy Maud Montgomery wrote: “it would be lovely to sleep in a wild cherry-tree all white with bloom in the moonshine.”

Come hear eight splendid storytellers share all sorts of tales about sunshine and moonshine.

If you’re one of those people who lingers in your car long after reaching a destination just to hear the end of Garrison Keillor’s “The News from Lake Wobegon” or Ira Glass on “This American Life,” then Word Plays may be for you.

Many performers will be telling during this season. At each Word Play, a different group of performers tell rarely heard contemporary and traditional stories about celebrating the human spirit. You will discover that Word Plays is a shared experience between the audience and the performer, combining the intensity of a solo performer with the intimacy of a face-to-face conversation.

Each show has its own theme where each story told relates to that theme.
