Collapsible Poetics Theater

"... The art of play has found a very talented proponent. Part carnivalesque rap, part sleight-of-hand hustle, Collapsible Poets Theater maneuvers its way through public language of several sorts to give theater a Realpolitik poetic voice. . . . From "BALK TO BILK" wordplay doubles as subversive text in virtue of its voicing passed through from player to player. . . . The poetry, built of linguistic slippage, occurs all the more readily for the bilingual speaker or the ex-patriot, whose frames of reference are plural and yet destabilized."--from the foreword by Marjorie Welish
