Choreographer Kate Wallich’s Splurge Land

Must Celebrate
Kick Off National Poetry Month with a Reading
Friday (4/3, 7 p.m.) Pulitzer Prize–winning poet Rae Armantrout is known for her short, sharp line lengths, humor, rhythm and an immersive approach—not to mention a lyrical eye toward domestic affairs. She’ll read from her new collection, Itself.
