Monday Night MarshStream at The Marsh

7:30pm, Monday, NOVEMBER 2

Monday MarshStream featuring special guests Ruth Kurschner, Lori Shantzis, and Claire Arnie Warshaw.

Ruth Kurschner's The House of Misery follows Kurschner's self-discovery journey. Despite being an introvert with social anxiety, Kurschner finally felt at home when she began helping individuals at San Quentin.

Lori Shantzis's Morning, Doves et. al gives a middle-aged woman's account on the eve of the election. Wondering what she can bring to this moment, the woman recalls the morning of SEPTEMBER 9, 2020, when the sky was dark from wildfire smoke and she was full of fear - but is reminded that something can always be done to make a better world.

Arnie Warshaw's Fat Man off the Port Bow invites audience members to enjoy a brief ride on the bouncing, ballooning belly of a large man - from a dive into his refried psyche to his cholesterol clogged dreams. A House Manager at The Marsh, Warshaw also writes and performs from time to time. While his job at The Marsh has been on hold since the start of the pandemic, Warshaw continues to Zoom into the homes of students as an English tutor for City College of San Francisco.
