Selected Shorts: McSweeney's 25th Anniversary Extravaganza tickets

The wondrous and imaginative world of McSweeney’s Quarterly Concern takes the stage for a singular Selected Shorts celebration. Since 1998, McSweeney’s has published award-winning fiction, essays, comics, and letters in perpetually evolving and inventive formats, from classic hardcovers and paperbacks to issues disguised as party balloons, junk mail, or even a sweaty human head. For one night only, the best of this deeply surprising and unusual magazine comes to life with performances by actors, friends, and fans. Hosted by John Hodgman and featuring musical guest Stephin Merritt from The Magnetic Fields.
