One of the positive things about our extended time of quarantine for the Covid-19 virus, is that there have been so many excellent online events and experiences to lift our spirits and remind us of the beautiful and special things in life. I found one of those online events and enjoyed an amazing performance serial of the classic poem, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, by Samuel Taylor Coleridge. I read it once long ago (in high school), and probably wouldn’t have read it again until I found this link. It’s a MUST experience, because each section is read by a different performing artist, and the artwork that accompanies it is phenomenal. It’s a completely immersive art experience, and is incredibly powerful. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND the experience!

How cool. Thank you for sharing this. I agree I think it’s great how so many museums and reading events have been able to accommodate to our new reality. My husband and I have “attended” several classical guitar concerts throughout this summer and they’ve been so much fun.

This is brilliant thank you! I love this poem because my husband can recite it and puts a lot of theatre into it – this will be competition for him!
