Symphony Space is delighted to announce the launch of a new series with our friend, the brilliantly hilarious, boundlessly curious, and *occasionally* outspoken actress Jane Curtin in conversation with quintessential New Yorkers.
New York City has been the muse of some of the world's greatest writers, actors, comedians, chefs, politicians, activists, and so many more. Symphony Space honors the gorgeous complexity of New York and the mystique that surrounds it, in this new conversation series exploring what is that thing that inspires such prolific creativity.
Jane discusses politics, life in New York, and unusual upbringings with Daily Beast editor-at-large, co-podcaster of The New Abnormal, and über-Tweeter Molly Jong-Fast.
