The piece will feature Devon Glover, Melissa Guttman, and Meghan Early, along with Allan Mednard on drums, Alex Violette on bass, Jeremy Sherron on keyboard, Robin Hood on guitar.

In related news, Glover will also be offering two workshops for students ages 13-16 on February 13, allowing them to try their own hand at writing and performing original sonnets.
