READING: Get a drink at the Half King tonight in some good company - Anthony Bourdain will be there with Bill Buford, to celebrate Buford's new book, Heat: An Amateur's Adventures as Kitchen Slave, Line Cook, Pasta-Maker, and Apprentice to a Dante-Quoting Butcher in Tuscany. - Krissa Corbett Cavouras
7pm // The Half King [W 23rd St at 10th Ave] // Free
THEATER: Top off your Monday with a play about two prisoners in a World War II concentration camp. It’s called Timekeepers, and is apparently not as heavy as it sounds. Written by Dan Clancy, it was originally presented in London, where one reviewer called it “a really beautiful, intense piece of theatre that manages to combine humour and poignancy with remarkable skill.” The story centers on the bonding between a Jewish prisoner and a homosexual prisoner, who both share a wicked sense of humor, a love for opera and the whole imprisonment thing. - John Del Signore
8pm // The Barrow Group Arts Center [312 W 36th St, 3rd Floor] // Buy tickets here (and find a special discount code here)
EVENT: Starting a week long series of events, powerHouse Books will hold a discussion on women in hip hop tonight.
Janette Beckman (photographer of some of the most iconic album covers of the 80s), Martha Cooper (legendary hip hop documentarian), Delphine Fawundu-Buford (street photographer and portraitist) and many more will be on hand.
A screening of the short film Reder than Red and an open Brooklyn Brewery bar provide even more reasons to go.
4 to 7pm // The powerHouse Arena [37 Main St, DUMBO] // Free
