The Roethke Readings

There is a small, moody cabaret in the bowels of ACT Theatre, with mirrors, dark carpets, and a small bar. Tonight the moody cabaret will see the fifth of its eight Roethke-themed readings, with prose from Jonathan Crimmins (shortlisted for a Stranger Genius Award), poetry from local treasures Catherine Wing and Allen Johnson, music by Ken Benshoof (a composer for the Kronos Quartet), and marimba and guitar from Erin Jorgensen and Sara Edwards of the French Project. It's hosted by Brangien Davis of Swivel and The Stranger's Brendan Kiley. (ACT Theatre, 700 Union St, 292-7676. 9 pm, free.)

'First Class'

Written by the poet David Wagoner, performed by the actor John Aylward, and about the great American poet Theodore Roethke, First Class is a one-man play that, in essence, is an examination of the substance, mechanics, and spirit of poetry. If you have a mind, then bring it to this play. (ACT Theatre, 700 Union St, 292-7676. 7:30 pm, $50.) CHARLES MUDEDE
