Chicago’s Griffin Theatre has mounted a live production of my young adult novel Little Brother, adapted by William Massolia. This is incredibly exciting; Time Out Chicago gave it four stars, saying, “Doctorow raises many worthy points about the relationship between our safeties and our freedoms, and in Milne’s bracing production, newcomer Mike Harvey as Marcus makes a confident tour guide.” Bill Shunn, writing in Sci-Fi Wire, said, “Little Brother is an exciting and thought-provoking production, imaginatively staged on a bare-bones set with some multimedia elements stirred in.”
I’ve managed to wrangle a trip to Chicago to see the play on July 9 — I hope to see you there! And if July 9 doesn’t work for you, I hope you can catch it on another night.

Here’s some more video from the same shoot:

Here’s part twenty-four of my reading of my 2005 novel, Someone Comes to Town, Someone Leaves Town.
Last week I had the immense pleasure of keynoting at Fagdagen, the annual conference put on by NRK, Norway’s public broadcaster. NRK leads the world in internet-savvy public broadcasting, operating its own torrent server to deliver CC-licensed versions of its programming; they asked me to talk to them about what else they could do to ensure their future relevance. It was a good brief — and a great day!
Here’s part twenty-three of my reading of my 2005 novel, Someone Comes to Town, Someone Leaves Town.
