Pencil this in! Sunday, Dec 18, 3PM: a reading of WILDE ABOUT WHITMAN, with Steven Patterson as Walt Whitman, and Joshuah Patriarco as Oscar Wilde, directed by Sydnie Grosberg Ronga.
“On January 18, 1882, the young, untested wannabe-writer Oscar Wilde, 27, and the elder-poet-pauper Walt Whitman, 62, spent three hours together behind closed doors in Whitman’s home in Camden, New Jersey. WILDE ABOUT WHITMAN is the story, equal parts historical record and theatrical conjecture, of what they might have said, and done, behind those closed doors.”
