Selected Shorts: The Sixties
Wed, Feb 24 at 7 pm
$27; Members $25

Take a trip to that swinging decade of questioning, experimentation, and change as actors Cynthia Nixon, Michael O'Keefe, Selected Shorts Host Isaiah Sheffer, and Def Jam Poetry artist Staceyann Chin perform stories, poetry and nonfiction by James Baldwin, Joyce Johnson, Norman Mailer, Robert Lowell, Sonia Sanchez, as well as an excerpt from Joan Didion's classic essay "The White Album." Songs of the sixties help take us back to the age of free love, the Civil Rights Movement, and the Sexual Revolution.
