CONJURING THE GARDEN MASTER Centenary Performance
Richard performing his one man play about Pulitzer winning poet Theodore Roethke at Saginaw Valley State University on Nov. 12, 2008. We arrived at the theatre on Nov. 10th with a staged reading and by the evening of Nov. 12th had a play. I was privileged and honored to be director. In the audience that night was William Heyen who wrote:
“Richard Fitzpatrick’s moving and memorable tribute to Theodore Roethke is stunning–honed, honest, balanced, inspired, the work of a great actor who understands a great poet with all his heart and mind.”
William Heyen, author of Shoah Train, National Book Award Finalist for Poetry
