Robert Frost: This Verse Business

Ford Center: For nearly fifty years, Robert Frost 'barded' around the country charming audiences with his celebrated verse and rascally sense of humor.

For nearly fifty years, Robert Frost “barded” around the country charming audiences with his celebrated verse and rascally sense of humor. Played by Emmy-winning actor Gordon Clapp (NYPD Blue’s Detective Medavoy), Frost’s great wit and poetry are heard afresh in this award-winning one-man show. In Clapp’s acclaimed performance, the funny and flinty old icon shares his poems and his pointed “wild surmises” on religion, science, “liberals,” and “conservatives.” Culled from actual recordings, interviews, and letters, Robert Frost: This Verse Business is both an exhilarating glimpse of the public and private faces of America’s beloved poet and an entertaining testament to the intrinsic value of the arts.
