Poetry in America featured in Broadway World
On April 4th, 2018, Broadway World’s Macon Prickett wrote an enthusiastic article on the incipient release of Season One of Poetry in America. While Prickett was impressed with the guests, and the production, he found the show’s commitment to the communal aspect of poetry especially impressive. As series host Elisa New said: “Poetry is human language worthy of being shared. It’s that sharing that I wanted this series– more than anything else– to be about. Each episode of Poetry in America says to the viewer: reading a poem in community with others enriches your life, and deepens your understanding of the world.”
