Sunday, March 24, 2024 10:00 AM

Join Nauset Fellowship in-person at Chapel in the Pines in Eastham or online via Zoom on Sunday, March 24 at 10am as John Dennis Anderson performs American poet Robert Frost. Robert Frost’s poetry spoke to the complexities of twentieth-century life and, for that, he won four Pulitzer prizes. This Chautauqua style performance explores Frost’s theory of “the sound of sense” through readings and discussion of some of his best-known poems, including “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening,” “The Road Not Taken,” “Birches,” “Mending Wall,” and “Fire and Ice.”

John Dennis Anderson, a native of Waco, Texas, now living on Cape Cod in Massachusetts, is a performance studies scholar and Professor Emeritus in Communication Studies at Emerson College in Boston. Anderson has received grants to develop Chautauqua performances. Anderson was a faculty member for the Chautauqua Training Institute of Humanities North Dakota in 2022-2023. He teaches for the Open University of Wellfleet in Massachusetts, and he serves on their Board and is a trustee of the Helltown Players. His website is jdanderson.org.
