Greenwich Arts Council presents the new musical 

THE MYSTERIES OF HARRIS BURDICK 

Sunday, August 26, 4 pm

Cole Auditorium, Greenwich Library

FREE ADMISSION 

The Greenwich Arts Council, in partnership with the Greenwich Library, will present the Barrington Stage Company Musical Theatre Lab workshop production of the new musical The Mysteries of Harris Burdick, inspired by the acclaimed book of the same name by Chris Van Allsburg, at the Cole Auditorium of the Greenwich Library, Sunday, August 26 at 4 pm. With a book by Joe Calarco, music by Chris Miller and lyrics by Nathan Tysen, The Mysteries of Harris Burdick brings a unique perspective to Van Allsburg’s book, known for its whimsical, haunting and wildly intriguing illustrations. In the stage version, we hear the tale of Harris Burdick, a mysterious man who appears at the publishing offices of Peter Wenders with illustrations for a book he has written. Burdick promises to return the next day with the stories he has written to go with the illustrations—and never does. The illustrations are given a musical life by the composing team.

MEMOIR WRITING WORKSHOP
With Westport Writer Jessica Bram
Thursday, November 9
10 a.m. to 12 noon
Seating is limited; cost is $10
For anyone who has ever had the urge to finally set down the story of his or her life – either for a
published memoir or simply to leave a legacy to one’s children and grandchildren – this workshop
may be just the opportunity you need to get started.
Westport essayist and commentator Jessica Bram will offer a 2-hour workshop for those who would
like to venture into the joyful and rewarding experience of memoir writing. Geared to those with
no writing experience, writers who may already have or work in progress, or those who have just
done some scribbling, this workshop will encourage and inspire.
After discussing various approaches to memoir, autobiography, and personal essay writing, Jessica
will guide participants through the techniques that help open the doors to creative expression of
one’s personal stories. She will outline many of the writing techniques that make the material
interesting and enjoyable, and describe common pitfalls.
