Adam Davidson and the team from NPR's Planet Money, the public radio show that demystifies the world of money through razor-sharp reporting and engrossing storytelling skills, introduce a wide-ranging evening of funny, fun, smart, lively, and poignant tales performed by Broadway and Hollywood actors. The evening includes: Montanan Kevin Canty's sharp-witted satire "Where the Money Went;" a selection from Caine Prize-winning author Binyavanga Wainaina's deeply felt memoir of Kenya, One Day I Will Write About this Place ("One of Kenya's young literary stars"- Vanity Fair); a vivid scene of Tom Wolfe's Master of the Universe, Sherman McCoy from the ultimate Wall Street novel, Bonfire of the Vanities; and D.H. Lawrence's killer classic, "The Rocking-Horse Winner." Performers include: Teagle F. Bougere (Invisible Man), Danny Burstein (South Pacific & Boardwalk Empire), Fionnula Flanagan (Lost), and Jack Davidson (Adam's Dad).
