American playwright Romulus Linney (1930-2011) was obsessed by writers. In his energetic and fertile career, he crafted plays about writers ranging from Lord Byron to Oscar Wilde. "Three Poets" is a trio of plays, called by critic Mel Gussow, "small in scale, but rippling with poetic intensity." Three women poets--Komachi in 9th-century Japan, Hrotsvitha in medieval Germany, and Anna Akhmatova in Stalinist Russia--fight the conventions and powers of their times. The play is both funny and moving. Directed by Jim Stark.
