Vivek Narayanan says, "Over the years I have moved away from thinking about performance as merely a way to make poems more entertaining and accessible, to thinking about the radical contextual possibilities of performance, and collaboration. I am interested specifically in the active performance of 'difficult' poems."
This time, explore the radical in your performance.
