Pop Up Magazine is Back in San Francisco for its Biggest Show Yet
For some, Pop Up Magazine is synonymous with the changing seasons. For its Fall 2018 installment, the multi-dimensional show—which brings to life a “live magazine” concept, featuring a night filled with “true stories about the fascinating world around us”—will entertain San Francisco, not for two, but three nights, taking over the Curran Theater.
As always, the stories will span the globe and touch upon small-town America, big-time politics, technology, generational gaps, and so much more. Each issue is different from the last, with photography, film, radio, and original music all mixed together and performed live onstage by a cast of talented people.
A NIGHT OF TRUE STORIES, DOCUMENTARY FILMS, PHOTOGRAPHY, AND RADIO FROM SOME OF OUR FAVORITE WRITERS, PERFORMERS, AND MUSICIANS. UNRECORDED, LIVE ON STAGE.
Contributors for this round include Rebecca Skloot, the author of the bestseller The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks; Stephanie Foo, a producer from the NPR podcast series This American Life; Ann Friedman, the co-host of the popular podcast Call Your Girlfriend; Marc Bamuthi Joseph, a poet, playwright, and chief of program and pedagogy at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts; and Jason Parham and Emily Dreyfuss, senior writers from locally-based Wired magazine.
