In Person at Beyond Baroque and Live on YouTube
A mysterious suitcase travels through Los Angeles in Double Exposure, the third Poet Film Stage production at Beyond Baroque, following the sold-out Outlaws & Angels in May. This original 80-minute live production places poetry at the center of a seven-part cinematic and theatrical journey. Film, scripted performance, vignettes, and an original live score create a continuous work of poetry and story across screen and stage.
