This workshop was well received at it's inaugural session during the 2005 Robert frost Poetry Festival. Who better to learn how to read your poetry to the public than from an actor? Richard will help you reach back to the feeling you had when you wrote the poem so when you read your poetry - the poem is what the people hear.
