This performance is comprised of richly varied settings of poetry by William Shakespeare. This program, entitled Blithe and Bonny, originally presented at Bethany United Church of Christ on June 4, 2007, will be repeated at the Lincoln Park Cultural Center as part of Arts at Large’s fall series on November 12, 2008.
