« 12 Hours of Reading Under the Volcano? | Chicago Literary Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony » |
Events Wed Nov 03 2010
RUI @ Sheffield's
It's the first Wednesday of the month, time once again for Reading Under the Influence. This month's theme seems especially cathartic: "I Hate My Family" (just in time for Thanksgiving). Featured readers are Robert McDonald (A Field Guide to Gay and Lesbian Chicago), Two Cookie Minimum reading series founder John Wawrzaszek, local writer Kristen Fiore and RUI's own Jesse Jordan. All read original short stories and host trivia segments related to this month's theme. In the back room at Sheffield's, 3258 N. Sheffield Ave., $3 cover. Wednesday, November 3. Get there by 7 for a seat (or earlier; it's popular show and seats are scarce). Readings begin at 7:30.
