All the Faces of the Moon, Mike Daisey’s Monologue Series, Begins Month-Long Run at the Public Theater

Monologist Mike Daisey’s month-long monologue series All the Faces of the Moon begins September 5 at Joe's Pub at the Public Theater, which will host a new monologue each night over the course of one lunar month. Daisey’s series officially opens on September 11 and will run through October 3.
