You can also find public transportation and driving directions there.
This has been an extraordinary year for Quiet Lightning. Partnerships have included Sports Basement, 826 Valencia, SomArts’ Feast of Words, Porchlight storytelling, the Studio One Reading Series, the Contemporary Jewish Museum, Beast Crawl, and The Rumpus. Each show has been a unique blend of the two. August 5th is Quiet Lightning: Return to Form.
Doors open at 6:30. Show begins promptly at 7:30 and ends shortly after 9, with an intermission for smelling the flowers. The whole building!
