Selected Shorts on Tour: The Adams Theater in Adams, Massachusettes

The popular radio show and podcast Selected Shorts presents an evening of funny, moving, and surprising stories about people on the margins. Join us for an unforgettable night as acclaimed actors, including David Strathairn (Where the Crawdads Sing), perform short fiction about rebels, newcomers, and lone wolves—celebrating how life on the outside can spark fresh perspective and the unexpected moments that turn strangers into insiders. Our greatest actors transport us through the magic of fiction, one short story at a time. Sometimes funny. Always moving. Selected Shorts connects you to the world with a rich diversity of voices from literature, film, theater, and comedy.
