“In all the hotels I managed over 55 years, I always introduced music. Had I known about contemporary performance poetry, I’d have introduced that too! My first visit to one of Sara Hirsch’s performances opened my eyes to a whole new world of contemporary culture. She made us laugh, gasp, and even cry. Enjoy the beauty of the spoken word in the hands of an expert.” — Ronald Jones OBE, Former General Manager of Claridge’s, London
