In honor of a new season of "America's Game," WordStage is pleased to
present "Diamonds" - a celebration of the Boys (and Girls!) of summer. From
Ernest Thayer's iconic "Casey at the Bat" to Grantham Rice's "Casey's
Revenge," baseball has inspired some of America's greatest poets and
writers to create dozens of dazzling works of literature, both praising and
damning this annual rite of spring.

The words of Franklin P. Adams, Marianne Moore, May Sarton, Gregory Corso,
Lawrence Ferlinghetti, and many more, extol the excitements, sorrows and
memorable moments of this marvelous game.

"Diamonds - the Poetry of Baseball " will be performed at the Wright Chapel
of the Lakewood Presbyterian Church - 14502 Detroit Ave., Lakewood, Ohio at
7: 00 p.m. on Saturday, April 29th. Tickets may be reserved by calling
440-857-0717 or by purchasing them with cash or check at the door. Tickets
are $20 General Admission/$15 Seniors/$10 Students.
