The Parliament of Poets, by Frederick Glaysher

Ringwald Theatre, Ferndale, Michigan. November 13, 2022

“A hopeful vision of peaceful coexistence as one united humanity. It was delightful to hear the voices of great poets and thinkers of the past in dialogue with the narrator. The performance was thought-provoking, moving, and inspiring. Our world is desperately in need of this message of peace, love and humanity.” —Rev. Eric Williams, St. Philip’s Episcopal Church, Rochester, MI

“Impressed, moved to laughter, tears. Held our attention for 90 minutes, stayed so energized, a feat in itself. A creative, powerful message with so many of the poet masters, phenomenal! Amazing life-time work!” —Rev. Leonetta Bugleisi, Unitarian Universalist

As a universal interfaith story, The Parliament of Poets tells the tale of a journey toward cosmos, Christian and spiritual unity, “Spiritual, Not Religious.”
