Culture Project, New York, April 17, 2006

Jason Grote

Dear artist and activist friends,

I am helping to organize a joint Theaters Against War/No Passport
event on April 17 (Patriot's Day) at the Culture Project at 8 PM and
looking for speakers and performers working around the subject of
freedom of expression in the arts.

Ideally we're interested in people reading or performing their own
work or speeches. Monologues, songs, readings from new books, and
stand-up/improv comedy are especially welcome. Alternately, you may
read a statement on freedom of expression written by someone else. We
can also provide people with writing, speeches, or statements from the
likes of Brecht, Fugard, Havel, Arthur Miller, Naomi Wallace, Hannah
Arendt, MLK, Subcommandante Marcos - and many more!

Depending on the volume of acts/speakers, were looking for things in
the 5–15 minute range. We are hoping to keep the whole thing down to
two hours max.

If you're interested, please email me as soon as possible. Feel free
to forward this as well. Apologies for duplicate or erroneous
postings.

Health,
Jason
