"Only We Who Guard the Mystery Shall Be Unhappy". Writer-director-actor John Cameron Mitchell (Golden Globe nominee for
Hedwig & the Angry Inch) portrays the First Lady of the United States, Laura Welsh Bush, who reads Dostoyevsky's
The Brothers Karamazov to dead Iraqi children! He is joined by Patricia Clarkson, who is typecast as an angel. Emmy winning actress Kristen Johnston hosts the evening.
Following the reading, Tony Kushner joins Kristen, John and Patricia for a lively roundtable discussion and audience Q&A.
