This American Life – Live!
Because there's all kinds of stuff you just can't do on the radio.
Overview
With a weekly listenership of 1.7 million and a strong following since 1995, the popular weekly hour-long radio program This American Life is due to make its debut in Australian cinemas. Filmed on a stage in New York City, This American Life — Live! is a packed show featuring stories by host Ira Glass, writers David Sedaris and David Rakoff, comic Tig Notaro and Snap Judgment host Glynn Washington, plus live music by OK Go.
This live experience will encompass things you could never do on the radio, such as a new short film by Mike Birbiglia, dance by Monica Bill Barnes & Company, original animation, projected illustration and more. Glass is excited to see how it turns out; "We've built this line-up of stories mixed with super visual things," he says. "It's going to feel like the radio show but also totally unlike anything we've done before."
A must-see event to be permanent-markered in.
This American Life — Live! will screen in Sydney at the Cremorne Orpheum, Dendy Newtown, Chauvel Paddington and Riverside Theatre Parramatta.
