Events with A Public Space

Jan 9 Happy Ending

On January 9, Amanda Stern hosted APS contributors Ian Chillag, Jack Livings, and Jim Shepard, along with John Wray's band Kid Gloves, at Happy Ending, a reading and music series she curates. For anyone unfamiliar with the series, each reader is required to take one public risk, and reading in public cannot be that risk. Although Jim's dog-murder confession and Jack's terrible knock-knock jokes were interesting and entertaining risks, Ian stole the show by inviting a nearly blind, somewhat inebriated audience member (thanks Molly) to cut his hair on stage. Thanks to everyone who came out.
