What is One Book, One Philadelphia?

This is the ninth year that One Book, One Philadelphia has been happening in Philadelphia. Basically it is a time for Philadelphia to read one book, and there are programs related to that book all year long. This year the book is War Dances and The Absolute True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, by Spokane Indian author Sherman Alexie.  For information on Alexie, check out his website at

 There is sure to be good conversation and interesting programs and Dawson St Dramatic is lucky to be a part of it all!
