Five Poet Plays

Publisher: Level 4 Press, Inc.

The series is a loosely integrated set of five full-length plays about the five poets at the turn of the 20th Century who did the most to set the direction of modern poetry through the remainder of that Century. The plays integrate biographical information about the poets with their poetic work to offer the audience greater insight into them as individuals, into their poetry, and into the issues that surrounded them. The five plays are: Dickinson, Eliot, Lowell, Frost, and Pound.
