This is Not a Reading Series is just what the name implies–instead of your typical literary event of dry deliveries and yawning audiences, This is Not a Reading Series presents vaudeville acts, music, poetry, drama, video installation, volcanoes, and stories from the strangest people and experts you’re likely to find.
