Celebrating Marcus Gardley, Quiara Alegría Hudes, Melanie Marnich, Daniel Reitz and Lucy Thurber as they complete their seven-year residencies. Join us for an exciting two-day festival of readings and tributes, food and fun.

John Brown. Harriet Tubman. Timothy McVeigh. Nat Turner. All deeply religious. All heard voices from God. All were extremely patriotic and loved their country. And all believed in violence. Their stories and unique historical markers meld into a contemporary family's quest for identity and survival.

Supported, in part, by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts; commissioned and produced by the Contemporary American Theater Festival.

Featuring selections from Daniel's work over his seven years at ND.

This reading is open to the public, however, reservations are required as seating is limited. Please call 212-757-6960 to reserve.

This festival is made possible with the generous support of The Friendship Ambassadors Foundation, in memory of Barbara Barondess MacLean.
