Join us for our 5th chapter celebrating the magic of sequential storytelling – comic books! Produced in collaboration with West of Lenin, this one-night gala features STOP THIEF! a short play by Bret Fetzer and Juliet Waller Pruzan, a world-premiere screening of the latest episode of THE PANEL JUMPER detailing the corruption of American youth by the evils of comics in the 1950s, the nerdy musicality of indie singer-songwriter Aaron J. Shay, a thrillingly original-original superhero epic (as told by a pair of dingbats) straight from THE ADVENTURES OF ROCKETMAN AND BEANO, comic book industry guest Eisner nominee and New York Times best-selling artist and illustrator Kazu Kibuishi (AMULET, FLIGHT), a live podcast recording of City Arts Magazine top-rated PERFECT BOUND PODCAST and nerd-tastic burlesque from the weird and wacky Sally Savant.
