Joe Barna writes (9/21/07):

Here’s the flyer info for a one-night one-man show I’m doing Oct 4, to which I’m inviting any or all classmates who might be in the area. Not solely about the years at Yale, but they will be part of it.

SPUTNIK – A Personal Journey

Fifty incredible years and the satellite that launched them.

What do a UFO, Little Red Riding Hood, the Fillmore East, a
rollercoaster-riding dog, the Yale School of Drama, the gay political
underground in the Soviet Union, and hundreds of funny signs have in
common? Come to this monologue performance piece on the perfect
randomness of life, a Spaulding Gray meets Garrison Keillor
look at the joys and mysteries of hurtling through space on a fragile
ball of rock, as lived, written, and performed by Joseph T. Barna.

Sometimes, something happens that drives the rest of your life.
For me, that moment was seeing Sputnik.

8:00 pm Thursday, October 4, 2007 $5.00
at The Medicine Show Theater, 249 W. 52nd Street (between 10th and
