Playwright Richard Nelson and journalists Kurt Andersen and Carl Bernstein will join host Alec Baldwin for The 9/11 Decade: New York and America After the Towers, to be held on Thursday, September 8. The event will immediately follow the evening’s 7:30pm performance of Nelson’s Sweet and Sad,.


During the course of the forum, Baldwin will moderate a discussion that will consider how 9/11 continues to affect New York and the country.


The play, which concerns the way we remember the September 11 attacks, will star Jon DeVries (Benjamin Apple), Shuler Hensley (Tim Andrews), Maryann Plunkett (Barbara Apple), Laila Robins (Marian Apple Platt), Jay O. Sanders (Richard Apple), and J. Smith-Cameron (Jane Apple Halls).
