Bloomsday at the Hammer, 2017
- This is a past program
“The stirring live readings from the book—presented by a cavalcade of dramatic actors in the museum’s Billy Wilder Theater—is most certainly gratis, and most certainly glorious.” —Alysia Gray Painter, NBC LA
The Hammer’s eighth annual Bloomsday celebration features a staged reading of James Joyce’s only play, Exiles, with veteran actors John Lee, James Lancaster, Brenda Meaney, Johnny O’Callaghan and Síle Bermingham. Followed by live music by Rattle the Knee, Guinness on tap, and Irish snacks available in the courtyard.
Organized by Stanley Breitbard and directed by Darcie Crager.
