Town Hall is proud to partner with The Bushwick Book Club Seattle presenting concerts of original music inspired by literature. Each event showcases a lineup of local, professional musicians and artists each offering a fresh response to that evening\u2019s source text, plus extras like an audience quiz, short film, or scholarly introduction. Book choices range from whimsical to solemn, classic to contemporary, and most every place in between.<\/p>\n

Original music inspired by\u00a0Gender Queer\u00a0<\/em>by Maia Kobabe and\u00a0Sex is a Funny Word<\/em>\u00a0by Cory Silverberg and Fiona Smyth<\/strong><\/p>\n

Celebrating two of the most challenged books in America, Bushwick goes big in June with a kaleidoscopic double-bill about love and self-discovery.\u00a0Gender Queer<\/em>\u00a0is the reigning banned book champ, sitting atop ALA\u2019s list of most challenged books in 2023.\u00a0Sex is a Funny Word\u00a0<\/em>has been banned and challenged for just about every topic it covers: sexual identity, sexual expression, and all of the weird, wonderful body parts that make us who we are.<\/p>\n

Performers include:<\/strong>\u00a0Carly Sparkly<\/a>,\u00a0Ev Elston<\/a>,\u00a0Kat Bula<\/a>,\u00a0Sam Cori<\/a>,\u00a0Christiana Crabbe<\/a>,\u00a0K Van Petten<\/a>,\u00a0Sailor St. Claire<\/a>,\u00a0Kuwaisiana<\/a>,\u00a0Jade Monroe<\/a>,\u00a0Jean Mann<\/a>,\u00a0Jamie Irby<\/a>,\u00a0nance!<\/a>, and\u00a0Lauren Fernandez<\/a>.<\/div>\n
