Outermost Community Radio presents a benefit for WOMR, featuring Susan Blood and Ira Wood.
Outermost Community Radio presents a benefit for WOMR, held at the Cultural Center in South Yarmouth, featuring Susan Blood and Ira Wood. Susan Blood is the newest voice you've always known. Her work has appeared in the Christian Science Monitor, the Provincetown Banner, The Magazine of Yoga, MamaPop, Bachtrack, and her own blog, Trout Towers. Opera Betty, her opera show for people who hate opera, airs on Outermost radio WOMR. She has been called many things, including: "modern, smart, (and) a little dorky" by a random stranger on the internet. Like the boy who gets a box of manure for his birthday and is convinced there has to be a pony around somewhere, Susan Blood can shovel through it with the best of them. Her ferociously optimistic essays take us on a cathartic odyssey through life's bumps, from an infestation of mice and swimsuit disasters, to aging parents and her own funeral. Susan writes of her desire to see a version of Dwell Magazine where the interior photos are taken without notice. These are those photos—full of wit, despair, resolve, insight, clarity, terror, and a couchful of laundry. Ira Wood is, “Fresh, vital…totally convincing… Mr. Wood has a special gift for heartwarming comedy.” —The New York Times Book Review. “Fearless, gregarious, frequently humble and hysterical… Ira Wood is on the same pedestal we’ve placed Dave Barry and David Sedaris. Yes, he’s that good.” —Barnstable Patriot. Put Susan and Ira together and you have an event not to be missed.
