[URBAN NOTE] Sky Gilbert at the Toronto Reference Library

[rfmcdonald]

I hadn't expected to see, on entering the library, a sign announcing Sky Gilbert's delivery of a reading 6:30 this evening, but it struck me as something I might want to profit from. The reading got off to a rocky and ill-organized start, but it improved considerably as he interspersed readings from his memoirs Ejaculations frm the Charm Factory with passages from several of his plays (The Dressing Gown, Drag Queens on Trial, and Drag Queens in Outer Space). I was interested by this enough to borrow his 1996 play anthology Painted, Tinated, Sainted. It'll be interesting.
