SUMMARY:People of The Book - by Yussef El Guindi
DESCRIPTION:Yussef El-Guindi is one of the most talented playwrights in the country today\, and he happens to live in Seattle. He earned a Stranger Genius Award in 2015\, shortly after the premiere of his play Threesome\, about an Egyptian American couple who set out to spice up their sex life by inviting an absolute doofus of a white guy into their bedroom.  El Guindi’s new play\, People of the Book\, involves more sexual jealousy across cultural traditions\, as well as a soldier-turned-writer whose massive success with a memoir inspires jealousy from some old high school friends. – Stranger \nPeople of the Book is a very personal play that speaks to much larger national themes.  It’s a gripping drama that is inspired by Euripedes’ Medea and crackles with the kind of contemporary wit that we have come to love about Yussef’s writing.  – Director\, John Langs \nPlease check the Act Theatre’s website for details regarding showtimes and ticket prices. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Mary Ann Peters - Traveler at James Harris Gallery
DESCRIPTION:“I work from the premise that images are never neutral and that they sustain layered meaning from the inception of an idea to the completed piece. Historical narratives\, architecture\, science\, personal heritage\, politics and questions of perception have all played a part in my thinking over the years.  I look for seemingly disparate elements that can coalesce and redefine a topic.  I have traveled extensively\, most frequently in non-Western cultures. Traveling has informed my understanding of the global roots of aesthetics. It consistently defines for me those social practices that provide outlines for cultural inquiry\, including which ethical questions should be considered or supported. In the end I work to the afterimage of the viewer and the potential discourse that might ensue.  The kiss of death for any artist is the work that no one can remember.” \n– Mary Ann Peters \nMary Ann Peters lives and works in Seattle\, WA  She received an MFA from the University of Washington in 1978. She has received numerous awards including an Art Matters Foundaton Grant\, New York that allowed her to travel to Paris and Mexico City to research the migration from the Middle East after World War II\, a grant from The New Foundation\, Seattle in 2014\,  a MacDowell Fellowship in 2010\, a Jentel residency in 2009\, the Northwest Institute of Architecture & Urban Studies in Italy (NIAUSI) residency in 2003 and the Neddy Fellowship from the Behnke Foundation in 2000. Collections include Microsoft\, Seattle Art Museum\, 4Culture\, Tacoma Art Museum\, and others.

SUMMARY:Naomi Shihab Nye at Town Hall
DESCRIPTION:Internationally beloved poet Naomi Shihab Nye’s latest collection\, The Tiny Journalist\, is a collection inspired by seven-year-old Janna Tamimi\, the “Youngest Journalist in Palestine\,” who captured videos of anti-occupation protests with her mother’s smartphone. \nNaomi Shihab Nye describes herself as a “wandering poet.” She has spent 40 years traveling the country and the world to lead writing workshops and inspiring students of all ages. Nye was born to a Palestinian father and an American mother and grew up in St. Louis\, Jerusalem\, and San Antonio. Drawing on her Palestinian-American heritage\, the cultural diversity of her home in Texas\, and her experiences traveling in Asia\, Europe\, Canada\, Mexico\, and the Middle East\, Nye uses her writing to attest to our shared humanity. – Steven Barclay Agency \n  \nThursday\, September 19\, 2019 7:30 pm at Town Hall Seattle \nTickets go on sale July 15th!
