Due to the overwhelmingly positive response to my January performance of The Western Star, I've scheduled another performance, on the Middlebury College campus, for next Friday, February 17th at 7:30pm in the Abernethy Room at the Axinn Center, sponsored by the Middlebury College Music Department. This event is free and open to the public.

DESCRIPTION
The Western Star: an epic poem, with songs, written and performed by Jack DesBois. A performance in the epic oratory tradition, The Western Star tells the story of the Three Kings and their journey west to Bethlehem. With poetry and song, it celebrates the season of Epiphany and the return of the light and contributes to the living tradition of Biblical storytelling with freshness and reverence.
Jack DesBois is a singer, actor, poet and playwright based in Middlebury, seeking to create dramatic works that build community and restore the soul. Storytelling is mindful living; storytellers create and share meaning from our experiences and help us live.
