Beneath a tempestuous full moon, Orange County’s middle-class poet laureate Lee Mallory wields his call-and-response best at SoCal icon John Gardiner this week. Billed as “80 years of experience, imagination and craft,” Gardiner will be channeling his “trickster” animal totem, the coyote, and Mallory emanating his Ghostrider. The evening promises to be interesting, if nothing else, and maybe even riveting depending on just how bright the moon is. The musical stylings of Courtney Montgomery open the show.
