June 8 Sad Tamales
We are approaching peak daytime hours as the scales of Winter-sad are lifted! That's a perfect antidote to Sad Night Live, a celebration of sad musics. Michael Hurley, Shelley Short and Dragging an Ox Through Water perform sad songs and writer Patrick DeWitt reads his saddest stories. The presenters win a special copywriting award for their observation: "The sadness of others, when presented in the form of song, story, or painting, can be moving and empowering, as the viewer is forced to recognize sorrow as a shared or communal experience".
