“No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it's not the same river and he's not the same man.” -Heraclitus
No River Twice is a group of poets interested in creating community by connecting audiences to poetry in meaningful and playful ways that surprise, move, and delight (and that don't make anyone feel stupid or bored to tears)
We are a group of talented and published poets who offer poetry readings in which audiences and poets actively interact, poem by poem, to decide the direction of the performance from beginning to end, co-creating a reading that is never the same twice. We don't improvise poems, just everything else about the performance: selections, theme
We are a group of talented and published poets who offer poetry readings in which audiences and poets actively interact, poem by poem, to decide the direction of the performance from beginning to end, co-creating a reading that is never the same twice. We don't improvise poems, just everything else about the performance: selections, themes, and tone are an intriguing surprise and discovery to all of us. And then we make a poem of it!
We start with one of our poets' poems, randomly selected by the audience and then we improvise the reading, poem
by poem, through audience suggestion and direction, following different threads, juxtapositions, themes, and connections.
