Wed Sep 3 - Sat Oct 11 Litquake Literary Project presents Litquake 2008 A Literary Festival Tel. 415-750-1497 Email Litquake 2008 Website

Description "Put Down the Books and Head Out of the House Litquake is San Francisco’s literary festival. Since our inception in 1999 our mission has been to galvanize the Bay Area’s already thriving literary scene by bringing emerging, mid-career and established local authors together with fans of the written word for nine days of readings, panel discussions, themed events, and general literary mayhem. Litquake is for folks who get excited by reading, writing or both. It is an opportunity to put down the books and head out of the house to a bar, movie theater, park, or auditorium to hear your favorite writers read, perform or just talk. On Friday, October 3 at 8 p.m., the Herbst Theatre in San Francisco will get very noisy. And then become very quiet. Then noisy . . . and then quiet. This is expected to continue all night as an assembled roster of raconteurs, writers, and actors from New York, Los Angeles, and the Bay Area take the stage. The evening in question is sure to be memorable as Litquake and Porchlight Storytelling present Amber Tamblyn, Cintra Wilson, Robert Mailer Anderson, Jonathan Ames, Will Durst, Neal Pollack, April Sinclair, and Adam Savage. One by one they will face down an audience waiting to be entertained by being told (not read mind you, but told) stories that revolve around the theme of Suckered: Writers Confess a Profound Lack of Judgment."-http://www.litquake.org Note that the events are at different venues around the city.
