Profile

Amanda Stern's long-running, twice-monthly reading series encourages its guest authors to take a "public risk" onstage. (McSweeney's jokester Ben Greenman once read his credit-card number, while author Tom Perrotta shared passages from his college diary.) Musicians then follow with original music and are encouraged to take artistic chances of their own.
