Thanks to Curtis.  As it happens, Zack and I visited Valencia Street
Books, a new new bookstore on Valencia, last night and had a nice
time.  I wanted to say something about encouraging people to support
their (my) neighborhood bookstores, so one way to do this is to attend
this reading.

> My girlfriend Jen Kollmer and another playwright, Liz Creely, are
> producing a staged reading of their short plays at Valencia St.
> Books, November 7, 7pm.  Everyone is invited, even George W.
> Bush, and admission is free, even for Republicans.
> 
> Jen's play is about forty minutes and Liz's is about twenty, so
> the whole thing should run about an hour.  For non-aficionadi,
> a staged reading is a sort of low-fi theater, where the actors
> don't have to memorize scripts or block out movement.  If you've
> already seen enough experimental happenings, I promise that the
> evening - though indubitably edgy - will be quite Aristotelian.
> And after the plays, we'll hear a lecture from Mr. Charles Shaw.
