The popular radio show and live performance series returns to RadioLoveFest after a sold-out show in 2015 for an evening of engrossing short fiction read by luminaries from Hollywood and the Broadway stage, including actor-director John Cameron Mitchell (Hedwig and the Angry Inch), Academy Award-nominated actor Amy Ryan (Birdman) and Tony Award-winning actor Anika Noni Rose (Dreamgirls). Activist and actor Cynthia Nixon (Sex and the City) hosts the evening.
