[NEohioPAL] WordStage ends its 2023 season with a tribute to James Thurber

[Tim Tavcar]

WordStage Literary Concerts  presents
A Cavalcade of Thurber

WordStage ends its 2023 season with a tribute to Ohio author, humorist and
illustrator, James Thurber.

Our program begins with an excerpt from an interview Thurber did for the
Paris Review, conducted by George Plimpton and Max Steele.  In it, he tells
amusing stories of everything from his own writing process, to his cartoons
and illustrations, to incidents in his life that shaped his own amusing and
idiosyncratic literary output, to often acerbic comments about writers,
friends, and associates.

The second part of the program will be a collection of some of his most wry
tales and fables, such as “The Little Girl and the Wolf,” “The Sheep in
Wolf’s Clothing,” and “The Unicorn in the Garden.” These will be
accompanied by a selection of manic melodies that underscore the quirkiness
of Thurber’s delightfully skewed stories.

The program will take place in the Wright Chapel of the Lakewood
Presbyterian Church - 14502 Detroit Ave. in Lakewood, OH  on Saturday,
November 18th at 7:00 p.m.
