Poetry! Song! Comedy! Drama! Romance! Race! Boston! Obama!In real life, I’m a stage manager in Boston. Currently, I’m working on a great show written and performed by six young people.

Set in the not-so-distant-future, ARTiculation follows the journey of six Boston poets as they weave their way through the vast jungles of their own imaginations. Armed with only words, this young diverse ensemble provides a mosaic of life, love, youth, religion and art set to a thundering mix of urban poetics and dynamic live theatre (more).

ARTiculation runs until January 24th.

It’s gotten some AMAZING reviews. Click through for a few excerpts, information on tickets and more!

From the Boston Globe:

The poet-performers of “ARTiculation” embrace the complexity of life with passion, humor, and poetic flair for one of the most energizing and entertaining evenings seen in a long time.

From the Boston Herald:

Within moments, “ARTiculation” succeeded in destroying all of my preconceived notions. And by its finish, it had fashioned a new view of youthful artistic power that is raw, urgent and utterly convincing, even to a skeptical critic.

From my mother:

ARTiculation was superb! Laughter and sadness, hope and despair all delivered by riveting
performers. I am fortunate that I was able to go.

OH WOW, ELIZA, THIS SHOW SOUNDS EXCELLENTAMAZINGSTUPENDOUS. I WOULD LIKE TO GO TO IT. WHERE IS IT?

Why, dear reader, it is at the BOSTON PLAYWRIGHTS THEATRE on Commonwealth Avenue in Boston, Massachusettes!

I WOULD LIKE TO BUY TICKETS IN ADVANCE OF THE 2-HOURS-BEFORE-THE-SHOW BOX OFFICE OPENING. IS THERE A MAGICAL PLACE I CAN DO THIS AT?

Yes. Yes there is. This place is called the internet.

I AM FAR TOO LAZY TO CLICK THAT LINK TO FIND OUT FOR MYSELF, COULD YOU JUST TELL ME HOW MUCH TICKETS COST?

No. Yes. Okay, for students with I.D it is $15. If you aren’t a student with I.D then full price tickets are $30. If you muster up the strength to click the above link, you can put in this super secret code to get discount tickets: C1YT*.

OH, I JUST DON’T KNOW. COULD YOU POINT ME IN THE DIRECTION OF SOME MORE INFORMATION?

I certainly can!
