poesy

Andrew Lloyd Webber’s adaptation of T. S. Eliot’s feline poesy ends its Broadway revival.

To learn grammar was to appreciate the book’s poesy, which in turn was to break open a once-inaccessible text.

In rehearsals, the cast members binge on Shakespeare films and take vocabulary quizzes, all of which contributes to their ease with words like “spake” or “poesies.”

Some are full-blown scripts, such as the piracy/poesy plays “The Pirate Laureate of Port Town” and “The Pirate Laureate and the King of the Sea,” by company member Zachary Fernebok.

She said that the name posy related to the French word for poem - poesy.
