Write Club Presents Races Wars

Write Club is back with its 22nd chapter, titled "Race Wars." For those who don't know, Write Club is a reading series that pits contestants against each other with competing assigned themes. There are three bouts, each seven minutes long. The audience votes on the winner. Oh, and all proceeds go to charities of winner's choosing. You're intrigued.

Race Wars bouts include Black by host Ian Belknap vs. White by Samantha Irby, Gay by Mairead Case vs. Straight by Whit Nelson, and Cat by Daniel Shapiro vs. Dog by Natalie Edwards. Write Club is on Tuesday, January 31st, at 7pm, at the Hideout 1354 W. Wabansia. $8 at the door; 21+
