Overview
Singer, songwriter and activist Joan Baez comes to our stage in a new role: published poet. Though she’s written poetry for many years, she hasn’t shared it publicly until the release of her 2024 collection, When You See My Mother, Ask Her to Dance. In this intimate conversation, Baez will share personal poems about childhood, family and musical contemporaries like Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen and Jimi Hendrix and its link to Social Change beginning in the 1960’s. It’s a glimpse into the deep inner life of a cultural icon.
