    Join the Ransom Center and The Encyclopedia Show Austin for an evening of learning and laughter combined with the excitement of a variety show. Each month an ensemble of writers and special guests are given an assignment picked from an encyclopedia. This month features a censorship-themed show inspired by the Ransom Center’s exhibition “Banned, Burned, Seized, and Censored.” Playwright Diana Grisanti, poet Cristin O'Keefe Aptowicz, stand-up comedian Kerri Lendo, writer Shappy Seasholtz, and poet Austin Kleon share their takes on the topic. $6 tickets available at the door; complimentary admission for the first 200 guests, courtesy of the Ransom Center.
