Morning Edition Sonnet Fundraising Element

From: Bill Palladino
Length: 00:01:15

A jocular spin on the Bard's Fourtheenth Sonnet with M.E. as subject. Read the full description.

Default-piece-image-0 Free to use if you see fit! This was produced for use on Interlochen Public Radio in Traverse City. It's a straight out rip off of Shakespeare's fourteenth sonnet. About a minute in length with appropriate period music beneath. Just a little frivolity for pledge week. The on-air set up included some banter regarding recently unEarthed, never before heard, sonnets found under the Globe Theater in London. This was one of several written. The others were specific to characters at the local station, WICA.
