Synopsis:
When Annabelle Gurwitch (Melvin Goes to Dinner, Dinner and a Movie, NPR) was fired from a play by Woody Allen, she was devasted. She started asking friends in show business if they had ever been fired and began collecting these stories and producing literary events in Los Angeles and New York. It was only the beginning of a journey that has grown into a look at what it means to be both hired and fired as an American worker in the global economy.
