Stephen King: A Half Century of Scares

Category: Arts
Duration: 00:57:40
Publish Date: 2025-01-30 18:00:00
Description:

Host Meg Wolitzer presents two stories from a live evening at Symphony Space celebrating the prolific writer Stephen King.  It was hosted by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Colson Whitehead.

The program presents King in two different modes: the legendary scare-master who entered the horror genre with Carrie, and the author of stories that draw on memory and family like “The Last Rung on the Ladder.”  An excerpt from Carrie is read by Carrie Coon, and “The Last Rung on the Ladder” is read by John Benjamin Hickey. Colson Whitehead speaks briefly from the stage.
