I perform at high schools across the Midwest with a mix of my poetry, performance art, and some tidbits of knowledge about being a professional freelance writer. At the end of most periods I do something called an "Iron Chef Poem" that I did with an ensemble called Speak'Easy a few years ago. A volunteer from the audience is brought on stage and interviewed by the coolest teacher there, (Mr. Anderson, at Fremd) and I write an insty-poem on the spot. BTW, do you want me to come to your high school for "Poetry Day?" (In this video, you see kids cheering for poetry -- what more could you want, folks?) If so, drop me a line. I am booking gigs all year! mary (at) maryfons.com
