PAS Presents: "Spirit of Carl Sandburg: The People's Poet In His Own Words."

  • Pilgrim Church 2850 Foothill Boulevard Redding, CA, 96001 United States (map)

Impressionist orator Max Walter portrays the life of Carl Sandburg through his poetry, songs and letters. Sandburg's unrelenting voice helped America find its sense of identity. Timeless themes still relevant, the melodic sweep and cadence of his poetic voice will praise all of existence. The words of Abraham Lincoln will remind and instruct us on political wisdom.

"Max Walter deftly assumes the role of poet Carl Sandburg in his monologue of reminiscences and musings, smoothly intertwined with poetry. We are moved by his spiritual insights into the natural world, human connections, and sensitivities to our given life conditions. The portrayal is engaging, rhythmic and full of nuance. We come away with a compassionate comprehension of a mind compelled to capture our common and uncommon experiences in the framework of poetic exhilaration." - Ellen S., Redding

"Spirit of Carl Sandburg is a captivating sensation. Max Walter embodies a remembrance of America through the very words, stories and music of Carl Sandburg. Many have heard something of this great pride in the American experience." -John C. | Mt. Shasta.

"An undercurrent of love throughout." -Jessica M. | Red Bluff, CA
