Description

Hear the stories behind Frost's work - the tragedy as well as the humor - as he shares some of his most popular poems, including Mending Wall, Birches, Nothing Gold Can Stay, Late Walk, Desert Places, Road Not Taken, and Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening. The 70 minute show sold out its original presentation on the North Shore, and filled the historic Frost Farm in Derry, NH to capacity multiple times!

A member of SAG-AFTRA and Actors Equity, he is also a historical reenactor, touring in shows about Shakespeare, Frost, Dickens, C.S. Lewis, and Aesop. He is founder and director of moonlight productions inc, a theater company dedicated to using theater as an outreach tool for children and teens, and artistic director of The Actors Company, a performing group working with non-profits.
