SUMMARY:THE MINUTES: Post-Show Discussion: Retelling and Reframing Shared National History
DESCRIPTION:Night falls on Big Cherry\, USA\, a seemingly ordinary town with secrets festering beneath its folksy charm. As the city council meeting unfolds in real time\, tensions rise\, alliances shift\, and a routine agenda veers into chaos. What begins as civic procedure spirals into a gripping unmasking of buried truths and a chilling question: How far would you go to protect your version of the truth? From the razor-sharp pen of Pulitzer Prize winner Tracy Letts (AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY)\, THE MINUTES is a darkly hilarious\, slow-burning thriller that peels back the patriotic veneer of American identity. Part biting satire\, part psychological mystery\, it exposes the rot at the heart of institutional power and the stories we tell to survive it. \nReserve tickets

DESCRIPTION:2026 PRIDE POETRY WORKSHOPS AT THE ARTS CLUB\n\nThe Arts Club of Washington announces a slate of free community writing workshops for 2026\, led by five Pride Poets-in-Residence. Workshops are designed to be generative\, so participants will leave each session with a new poem-in-progress\, and are open to writers of all levels of experience and backgrounds. \n  \nPride Poetry Workshop: Resistance – LGBTQ Poetry as an Act of Defiance\nIn this workshop\, participants will consider the forms that resistance to the heteronormative status quo—and the limits of their own thinking—can take. We will look at poems that not only assert a queer life\, but also challenge those who view that life as “less than.” Led by Gregory Adams. \nGregory Adams is a founding member of Station-to-Station\, a groundbreaking collective of Black LGBTQ performance poets and writers of the 1980s\, and part of the creative team who produced the documentary Fierceness Served!: The ENIK Alley Coffeehouse (2021). \nRegister here.
