A Lifetime of Love

T0452680804
Live Performance Based on the Poems of Moss Rich. If you struggle to get your man even to buy you flowers, Moss Rich's poems will melt your heart with a lifetime of love poems written to his wife Milly to celebrate birthdays and anniversaries. Pighog Press published a selection of the poems as Lifetime of Love in a boxed set in 2011. The performance puts his poems in their historical context including his association with the Unity Theatre in the 1930s and the whole arc of Jewish culture through the twentieth century. This adaptation brings the poems to life in a promenade performance including projections and audio. At age 101, billed as 'Britain's Oldest Working Poet' Moss Rich was deaf, blind but as prolific as ever. His unique collection of love poems, written since 1939 reflects a penetrating, earthy intellect and wicked sense of irony. He died in 2011.
