Objects with Roz Chast

1 upcoming performance in New York

At Symphony Space, Roz Chast hosts *Objects*, a live stage series built around the stories people attach to ordinary things. Each evening brings a changing roster of guests—here including Ani DiFranco, Tony Trischka, Abby Jimenez, Annabelle Gurwitch, and Caro Claire Burke—who talk, read, and perform around personal artifacts and the memories they carry. The format sits in New York’s long tradition of author evenings and downtown storytelling, but keeps its focus on material culture rather than confession. Its best moments treat objects as evidence, not props, and let the audience do some of the interpreting.
