Steps

More from this show

A portal into 1950s New York City, Frank O’Hara’s “Lunch Poems” have the feel of playing hooky: of roaming from museums to Central Park and sneaking into cinemas.

Choreographer Mark Morris, poets Terrance Hayes, Robert Pinsky, Todd Colby, and Eileen Myles, and musical duo Rachael and Vilray join host Elisa New to read “Steps,” O’Hara’s ode to NYC art and dance.

In this episode, we welcome guests:

Todd Colby, Poet
Terrance Hayes, Poet
Mark Morris, Choreographer
Eileen Myles, Poet
Robert Pinsky, Poet
Rachael Price, Musician
Vilray, Musician
