Immersive poetry for your events
Intimate individual readings
Individual readings begin with an element of chance. Danielle asks audience members to choose a flower from a bouquet. Each flower has handwritten lines from her poems tied around its stem, which determines the first poem. Then, the person may choose the next topic. After the reading, Danielle asks for consent to clothespin the flower, fragment of poetry, & ribbon to their lapel as a souvenir to keep.

Enchant the audience
Larger readings can be with a set of existing poems on the theme of your event or Danielle can work with your team to create a new work tailored to your request. For example, at the 2023 Edwardian Ball, she partnered with Dark Garden Unique Corsetry to create a custom fairytale to accompany the debut of their newest couture collection.
