Selected Shorts on Tour: The Adams Theater in Adams, Massachusettes

Description

The popular radio show and podcast Selected Shorts presents an evening of funny, moving, and surprising stories about people on the margins. Join us for an unforgettable night as acclaimed actors, including Brooke Adams, Tony Shalhoub, and DavidStrathairn perform short fiction about rebels, newcomers, and lone wolves—celebrating how life on the outside can spark fresh perspective and the unexpected moments that turn strangers into insiders.

Our greatest actors transport us through the magic of fiction, one short story at a time. Sometimes funny. Always moving. Selected Shorts connects you to the world with a rich diversity of voices from literature, film, theater, and comedy.

Selected Shorts is produced by Symphony Space and broadcast on more than 150 stations around the country. The Selected Shorts podcast consistently ranks as one of the most popular podcasts on iTunes. The series began in 1985 and enjoys sold-out performances to this day. Selected Shorts was conceived with a simple premise: take great stories by well-known and emerging writers and have them performed by terrific actors of stage and screen. Featuring stories around a lively theme, the favorite works of a guest author, or a special collaboration, each Selected Shorts event is a unique night of literature in performance.
