UUFDC Emerson Series presents an evening of monologues and music with Paul McComas on Friday September 16, at 7 pm in Ephraim at the Fellowship Hall.
Paul McComas brings the human condition to light and to life through fiction writing and live performance, using dramatic and comedic enactments of scenes from his own work to demonstrate “the lies that tell the truth.” You will be entertained and inspired by this candid and lively “inside look” at narrative, characters, and the creative process.
McComas has earned international and national awards for his short-form dramatic and comedic movies. He has taught at Northwestern University, National-Louis University, and Lawrence University’s Bjorklunden Center.
McComas is the author of four and editor of two books of fiction. His 2008 coming-of-age novel Planet of the Dates is in development as a feature film. He is currently co-authoring Logan’s Journey (slated for 2013 publication) with William F. Nolan, author of the science fiction classic Logan’s Run.
Tickets are available at the door for $10. A reception and opportunity to meet McComas will follow the performance. The Unitarian Universalist Fellowship is located in north Ephraim, adjacent to the Green Gable Shops.
