Theresa Rebeck author of Three Girls and Their Brother: A Novel
Hosted by: Marsha Norman, Pulitzer Prize Winning Playwright
In her highly anticipated first novel, award-winning playwright Theresa Rebeck satirizes the publicity-driven world of instant celebrity. Rebeck will discuss her plays, including the Broadway hit Mauritius, and talk about the transition from playwriting to books.
Theresa Rebeck’s plays include ‘Bad Dates’, ‘Omnium Gatherum’ (a Pulitzer finalist), ‘The Scene’, and ‘Mauritius’, which won Boston’s prestigious IRNE and Elliot Norton Award and premiered on Broadway in 2007.
The event is FREE and open to the public. For updates and additional information, please visit the website at www.bryantpark..org.

BEST OF SHOW
Friday at 7PM
Bowery Poetry Club (Bowery and 1st)
$10 at the door.
So K's mother got us these forks and knives and things because we're getting married and in our new married life, we will have beautiful utensils. We just started using them and let me tell you I feel more like an adult than ever before. We are fancy now. We have class. We have shiny silverware. People could come over and have multi course dinners and eat with this silverware. Of course they would still have to drink out of a Porky Pig glass but that's another story.
