The 34th annual BLOOMSDAY ON BROADWAY — a tradition created by Symphony Space co-founder Isaiah Sheffer and carried on in his memory — celebrates love, life, and language in James Joyce’s lavish, languid, and lively prose. Led by terrific actors and avid Joyceans including Lisa Flanagan and Malachy McCourt. This year’s event features a whirlwind tour through the episodes of Ulysses; a reading from the breathtaking Molly soliloquy by Terry Donnelly; as well as a section dedicated to W.B. Yeats in honor of the 150th anniversary of his birth, led by New Yorker poetry editor Paul Muldoon and featuring Colum McCann; and a special recreation of a BBC radio play interviewing Joyce’s friends and family directed by Neil Hickey. Hosted by Belinda McKeon.
