Friends Presents: Selected Shorts Holiday Tales

Don't miss this unique, in-person theater experience as the hit public radio series Selected Shorts takes the Berkley Theater stage. Selected Shorts features actors Pascale Armand, Jill Eikenberry, James Naughton, and Michael Tucker* for an evening of holiday stories filled with love, laughter, and nostalgia. The stories are mostly fiction, sometimes classic, sometimes new, and always performed by great actors from stage and screen.

This event is free of charge and open to all. Doors are to open at 6:30 p.m. Stay after the show for a brief Q&A with the actors.

Selected Shorts is produced by Symphony Space in New York City and broadcast on more than 150 stations around the country. Our greatest actors transport us through the magic of fiction, one short story at a time. Selected Shorts connects you to the world with a rich diversity of voices from literature, film, theater, and comedy. The Selected Shorts podcast consistently ranks as one of the most popular podcasts on iTunes, with more than 100,000 downloads every week. The series began in 1985 and enjoys sold-out performances to this day. Selected Shorts was conceived with a simple premise: take great stories by well-known and emerging writers and have them performed by terrific actors on stage and screen. Evenings are often co-hosted by writers or involve a special collaboration with literary publications, podcasts, museums, and more. Each Selected Shorts is a unique night of literature in performance.

This program is generously sponsored by the Friends of Greenwich Library.
