<i>Emmy-winner (NYPD Blue), IRNE-winner (Man in the Ring), and Tony-nominee Gordon Clapp stars as poet Robert Frost, who “barded” around the country for nearly 50 years giving sold-out talks to mixed crowds of poetry readers and non-readers alike. Arguably
the nation’s first superstar poet, he quipped, “What began in obscurity is ending in a blaze of publicity.” A beguiling rascal on the platform, the poet “re-lives” his verse from memory, relates his “wild surmises” on science, politics, and religion, and speaks
to the purpose and meaning of art. Then, inviting us home, he drops his mask, shares losses and regrets, considers the sources of his poetic inspiration, and picks up his pencil.</i></div>
