About

Join us September 7 for a night of theatre and music to celebrate the launch of Charlie Petch‘s new poetry collection Infinite Audition (Brick Books). Part poetry manuscript, part theatre resource for trans, non-binary and GNC actors, we will celebrate all the elements of the book, with music and performance. The author will be joined by musical guest Janice Jo Lee, as well as New Harlem Productions to welcome our local incredible actors to perform some of the monologues from the book. I will also do a set with music, puppetry and poetry. The event will be hosted by DM St Bernard.

Doors open at 6 PM, show starts at 6:30 PM.

Tickets for the in person are sold out but there will be an online event. RSVP on Eventbrite.
