Selected Highlights
The Lost Moon Sisters – Diane Di Prima Project
Description
In Lost Moon Sisters, Dairena Ní Chinnéide embarks on an intimate dialogue with the late radical feminist poet Diane di Prima, speaking to her spirit from west Kerry in a remarkable litany that evokes the personae of the wolf goddess and the warrior woman.
With new music composed by Nick Roth, with pieces performed by Oleysa Zdorovetska, and with beautiful images projected by Margaret Lonergan.
Diane Di Prima was a radical voice in new American poetry, a powerful feminist voice when men were the main speakers for the generation of Beat poets.
Her book 'Revolutionary Letter' (1971), was a handbook of counterculturlan protest that shows a utopian imagination while drawing attention to ecology.
In Loba's epic poem, which is a tour-de-fource, she draws on many myths to create the spirit of the hawk as a goddess with her singing.
Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter called it "Liberating and moving, a poem for all times."
