WALKING TOUR AS PERSONAL ESSAY |
|
Writer and native Washingtonian Rocco Zappone leads a two-hour
Ulysses-esque walking tour through Washington, filled with mental as
well as physical flaneurism. Participate in a new concept in
drama-related, interactive Performance Art with reminiscences and
impressions of a lifetime in DC. An odyssey of clash and
complementarity recollected in tranquility, this tour creates an
ideal, ephemeral experience in the realm of creative non-fiction
featuring Proustian effects, flashes of literary romanticism of the
artist-as-hero imagery of Washington Irving, enlivened by the
paradigm of the city as living organism and perceived through the
sharpened lens of Alistair Cooke’s trenchant observation of the 20th
century.
Walking Tour as Personal Essay meets Saturday mornings at 10:00a.m. at the statue of Andrew Jackson in Lafayette Square, 16th and H Streets, N.W., between H Street and Pennsylvania Avenue and E. Executive and W. Executive Avenues., N.W. Exceptions are Federal Holidays, Christmas, New Year’s and Easter Holy Week. $15.00. Cash only. (202) 341-5208 |
