Public Forum Duets: Baldwin/Brooks


Monday, Oct. 1 at 7pm

Joe's Pub at The Public

 

 


 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 


To mark the rededication of The Public Theater this fall, The Public Forum will present a special series of "Duet" conversations. Each Duet will pair an artist who has been important to the life of The Public with a leading voice from outside the world of theatre, reaffirming Joe Papp's mission to keep The Public in touch with society at large.

Alec Baldwin (Macbeth at The Public, Jack Donaghy on NBC’s 30 Rock, host of the WNYC podcast Here’s the Thing) will trade views about American politics and culture with New York Times columnist David Brooks (author of The Social Animal, On Paradise Drive, and Bobos in Paradise: The New Upper Class and How They Got There).

 

*****
