Sappho is a one-woman play with live music, written and performed by Mari Reeves. It brings the ancient poet's voice to the stage across twenty-six centuries. Poetry, desire, exile, and the fragments that survive: a solo monologue accompanied by a live musician. (Also published as a book.)
“What cannot be said will be wept.”
