    On Friday, April 14th, from 3-5 pm, the Pumphouse Poetry and Prose Project will host a show in honor of National Poetry Month. The show will feature local authors and classic legends. There will be music, comedy, drama, and rhyme.

    The show will feature Terra Shelman performing a scene from William Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, playing Queen Titania, Queen of the faeries with Steve Jenness performing as Oberon. Terra will also be reading a poem by former United States poet laureate Joy Harjo accompanied by Cheryl Good on Native American styled flute.

    Cheryl Good is one of the infamous good sisters out of Chicago, all of whom are involved with musical theater. On April 14th, Cheryl will be performing as an actress, vocalist, and flautist. Besides lending her musical talents, Cheryl will read a poem by Mary Oliver and another from “Visions of War, Dreams of Peace” a book of poems by American nurses in Viet Nam.

    Camilla Ross, director of Emerson Theater, Mary Heyborne, elegant first lady of Sedona poetry, Diane Rose, and the vibrant Sondraya will read classic poems by Langston Hughes, Keats, Carl Sandburg and Maya Angelou.

    Local authors Martha Entin and Constance Patrick will be reading from their recently published collections. Entin and Patrick recently debuted their books to a sold-out show and hope to attract a similar large and enthusiastic crowd this evening.

    Watching the latest debate from end to end once again it appears that the future of the GOP rests upon the shoulders of Vivek Ramasamy. Not sure exactly why but he simply outshines the pack. He has fresh energy and is light on his feet. He’s smart, confident and slick. He has snap. Crackle and Pop. He is young. A successful businessman and fearless. He is like a young Trump apprentice, full of vim and vigor and ready to rumble. Everyone else on the debate stage appeared dull, cranky or lifeless. Halley looked like she was suffering from a terminal case of constipation and badly needs a wardrobe manager. Christie looked like someone who bit into an apple, found a half-eaten worm, and decided to eat it anyway. DeSantis just keeps getting more and more boring; a somnambulist on Percocet.
