Plus+ nights go down every six weeks or so at a local jazz club named after Thelonius
Sphere Monk, jazz pianist. English teachers from Canada, the U.S., Great Britain,
Australia and New Zealand, U.S. soldiers, Koreans, folks from back home and various
nether regions, the inebriated and harmless, and the curious but well-behaved
all gather from throughout the peninsula. Everyone chills, digs some words and
stories, even one-act plays and comedy routines. Sometimes a juggler gets up on
stage and does his thing. Singers and guitarists kick out jams. It's a night to
hang out with chingus (friends), become better acquainted with familiar faces,
and be lifted out of the get up and go, hustle and bustle, run-a-round shuffle
of the academic/showtime blues. Enjoy the action that went down at Poetry Plus+11
& 12, 16, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 28, 29 & 32. and also pick up a copy of the Poetry Plus+ Anthology
1: "Crowded, Comfortable, Cool, & Cohesive" at the next Poetry Plus+ or send an
email to: pusanpoetryplus@hotmail.com
and arrangements will be made to get a copy put into your hands.
