A behind-the-scenes oral history of the hit Broadway musical by Bob Dylan

P&T Knitwear is pleased to welcome performer and playwright Todd Almond for a discussion of his newest book, Slow Train Coming: the incredible journey of Bob Dylan’s hit musical, from potential disaster to success; and an inside look at a perilous moment for one of America’s proudest institutions — Broadway.

Todd will be joined in conversation by A.M. Homes, critically acclaimed author of The Unfolding. After the talk, Todd will sign copies of Slow Train Coming.
