Kay, Sarah (sera)

November 20-21, 2013
Performing and teaching at Fairfield University in Fairfield, CT!
Sarah performed an open to the public show at the Regina A. Quick Center on Wednesday night, and then taught workshops to local high school students and Fairfield University students on Thursday morning. Both events had a great turn out, and prompted student Astrid Quinones to write a flattering article for The Mirror. “Through the simplicity of her words, young poet Sarah Kay revealed a world of complexity, wonder and mystery in an intimate performance,” Quinones writes.

Performing and teaching as a Visiting Writer at Green Farms Academy in Green Farms, CT!
Sarah spent two days working closely with students and faculty at GFA, and the experience was fantastic. GFA is full of brilliant minds and hearts. Much thanks to Ms. Balser and the entire English department for helping bring Sarah in! (And much thanks to all the students she got a chance to work with!)

Performing and teaching at Saraswati’s Yoga Joint in New Canaan, CT!
What are the odds that Phil and Sarah would return to perform and teach at Saraswati’s on the exact same day that they were here a year ago? Once again, the room was warm (physically and emotionally!) and full of light. Thanks for having the team back!

Performing and teaching at Hathaway Brown School in Shaker Heights, OH!
Sarah spent some wonderful quality time with 20 amazing young women: writing, playing, and collaborating. She was so impressed with how brave and smart they are and was immensely proud of the work they created and the risks they were willing to take. Thanks to Scott Parsons for putting together such a wonderful event, and to the lovely ladies who participated.

Performing at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, PA!
Sarah performed for a full house at McConomy Auditorium at Carnegie Mellon University. The crowd was attentive and delightfully rowdy, which made for a fantastic evening. Many thanks to Jing Jing and the other organizers for putting on such a great event and to everyone else who came out for the show. There’s even a review of the show in the Carnegie Mellon “Tartan” student newspaper! (Photo by Michelle Wan.)
