Nearly 200 years before “fake news,” Parisian newspapers sang about their own corruption on stage. If you would like to hear more about how the nineteenth-century press was dramatized, please come celebrate the publication of Cary Hollinshead-strick's book, The Fourth Estate at the Fourth Wall: Newspapers on Stage in July Monarchy France, at 18:00 on Friday, October 11 in Q-801.
In keeping with the book’s focus on embodiment of newspapers, you are encouraged to dress as a favorite periodical publication from any time or place.
Refreshments will be served.
