Selected Shorts
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Selected Shorts is an event at New York’s Symphony Space, in which actors read classic and new short fiction before a live audience. The readings are recorded live and become the basis of a one-hour radio program, hosted by Isaiah Sheffer. The programs are distributed by Public Radio International and air on PRI affiliate public radio stations in the United States.
The annual season of the live events at Symphony Space begins in the mid-fall and ends in mid-spring. The radio program airs weekly throughout the year.
Originally, the program was distributed by National Public Radio. However, in October 2007, it switched to distribution by forging a partnership with PRI, Public Radio International.
The show begins and ends with the piano and cello duet "Come to the Meadow" by Roger Kellaway.
