TERRY McMILLAN at Town Hall Seattle |
Presented by the CENTRAL DISTRICT FORUM FOR ARTS & IDEAS, with support from ELLIOTT BAY BOOK COMPANY and KUOW 94.9 FM. We are delighted to help present this evening, the much-awaited Seattle return by Terry McMillan, and the keenly anticipated return of the four-women cast of Waiting to Exhale. Fifteen years later, we get brought up to date—and then some—on the doings of Savannah, Gloria, Bernadine, and Robin in Terry McMillan's newest, Getting to Happy (Viking). Midlife time it is—crossroads—which way to go. Everyone's been shaped by the life lived—but there is shaping yet to do. This is spirited fun—and should again be fodder for much ongoing talk. Terry McMillan is the author of six previous novels—from Mama to The Interruption of Everything—with her edited, groundbreaking anthology of contemporary African American fiction, Breaking Ice—along the way. She has received the NAACP Image Award and the Essence Lifetime Achievement Award for Excellence in Literature. Tickets are $5, available via www.brownpapertickets.com. Town Hall Seattle is at 1119 Eighth Avenue (at Seneca). For more information on this evening and on the CD Forum's 2010-11 season, please see www.cdforum.org. Elliott Bay can also be called at (206) 624-6600 for more information.
