A Special Poetry Collaboration with Royal and London Academy Graduates
November 14, 2023
In 2017, Tippet Rise invited a group of recent graduates from Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA) and London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA), to come to Montana and create a series of poetry films with us, in partnership with our sister organization, Adrian Brinkerhoff Poetry Foundation. These young actors brought dynamic energy and thoughtful interpretation to these poems, and we’re so proud to share them!
We’ll release a new film from this series each week over the next three months. Visit our Film Library and social media to watch each film! The films feature actors Catherine Dryden, Joseph Aldous, Jensen Gray, Liam Jefford, Sofia Oxenham, and our co-founder Peter Halstead reading beloved poems by W.H. Auden, Seamus Heaney, Edna St. Vincent Millay, William Butler Yeats, Archibald MacLeish, Arthur O’Shaughnessy, John Donne, and Peter Halstead.
