Presenting poetry and dance as a unified art form

Poets featured in Session 3, Dancing Poetry Festival, 2020

Alisia Morrison, Orlando FL, Grand Prize Winner with Beauties in a Line

Romeo Alcala Cruz, San Francisco, CA, poem in English and Bicol, a Philippine language; Deborah Bachal Schmidt, El Sobrante, CA; Diane Alvine, Barnegut, NJ

We apologize for not having more poets for session 3. It was a dark and stormy night over all of USA and Canada, so many of the recorded poems were unable to be used because of having too much visual and auditory fragmentation, probably because of the stormy weather.


DPF 2020 Session 3: Zoom Link: https://youtu.be/ytXhjEkuD0g

Technical Director, Arthur Levinson

Produced by Artists Embassy International

Artistic Director, Natica Angilly

Host dance troupe, Poetic Dance Theater Company

Introduction, and thank you by Richard and Natica

List of Program 3 poets to read

We apologize for having only 4 of these readers. At the time of the recording, it was literally a dark and stormy night over the North American Continent. There were significant distortions and lapses of sound and video to make most recordings unusable. We intended to have another session, but time and other unexpected difficulties found us caught short, and there was no time to re-record, nor to offer time for those who could not join during the first offer. For those of you who were left out, we greatly apologize.
