Original Music Inspired by Steve Martin’s Born Standing Up

The Bushwick artists have read the book and are ready to perform their Born Standing Up inspired songs just for you!

The riveting, mega-bestselling, beloved and highly acclaimed memoir of a man, a vocation, and an era named one of the ten best nonfiction titles of 2007 by Time and Entertainment Weekly.

In the mid-seventies, Steve Martin exploded onto the comedy scene. By 1978 he was the biggest concert draw in the history of stand-up. In 1981 he quit forever. This book is, in his own words, the story of “why I did stand-up and why I walked away.”

Performers will include:

Simon Kornelis
Alice Howe
Mike Votava
Nancy K Dillon
Tobias the Owl
Monica Schley
Dean Moody
