If you buy a livestream ticket you will be able to watch this event live\, or at any time after broadcast.\nJack Kerouac\nProduced in collaboration with HB Studio. \nDirected by actor\, writer\, director and educator David Deblinger of HB Studio\, this unique event is part of Jack Kerouac 100 at The Village Trip\, a celebration of the acclaimed novelist and poet in Downtown Manhattan\, where he wrote much of his greatest work and where he was living when his most celebrated novel was published. \n“When I think of On the Road\, I think of when my son was four or five and we’d walk the one long block to the supermarket… he’d drop to the ground and just become enthralled with the earth\, insects\, pebbles\, twigs… Like there was this incredibly complex and beautiful world that he wanted to touch and play with for forty-five minutes at least\, while us adults have no time or interest in it\,” reflects David Deblinger. On the Road is relevant\, still\, because the words are fueled with a desire to connect and understand and honor each ‘precious and holy moment’ we have left. \n“I’m excited to put together a group of powerhouse artists to voice some of those beautiful words\, at the same place Kerouac hung out – The Strand – almost seventy years ago\, and actually have his friend David Amram who was there playing music here now\, playing once again. \n“To gather together to celebrate this masterpiece...I can’t think of a better way to spend a Saturday afternoon.” \nExpect to be thrilled and surprised by our readers\, who will include two award-winning actresses\, Mercedes Ruehl and Marsha Mason. \nDirected by David Deblinger\nWith music by David Amram\, Adam Amram\, Rene Hart\, Kevin Twigg \nA diverse cast including Stephanie Berry\, Kevin Corrigan\, John Doman\, Marsha Mason\, Dael Orlandersmith\, Mercedes Ruehl\, Jose Rivera\, and John Ventimiglia read excerpts from Jack Kerouac’s classic novel accompanied by a jazz quartet led by the legendary David Amram.

Our founder Benjamin Bass was all of twenty-five years old when he began his modest used bookstore and sought to create a place where books would be loved\, and book lovers could congregate.

On the Road is relevant\, still\, because the words are fueled with a desire to connect and understand and honor each ‘precious and holy moment’ we have left. \n“I’m excited to put together a group of powerhouse artists to voice some of those beautiful words\, at the same place Kerouac hung out – The Strand – almost seventy years ago\, and actually have his friend David Amram who was there playing music here now\, playing once again. \n“To gather together to celebrate this masterpiece...I can’t think of a better way to spend a Saturday afternoon.” \nExpect to be thrilled and surprised by our readers\, who will include two award-winning actresses\, Mercedes Ruehl and Marsha Mason. \nDirected by David Deblinger\nWith music by David Amram\, Adam Amram\, Rene Hart\, Kevin Twigg \nA diverse cast including Stephanie Berry\, Kevin Corrigan\, John Doman\, Marsha Mason\, Dael Orlandersmith\, Mercedes Ruehl\, Jose Rivera\, and John Ventimiglia read excerpts from Jack Kerouac’s classic novel accompanied by a jazz quartet led by the legendary David Amram.
