Summer Screen Club Panel Discussion: Shrill

In Episode 20 of Listening At The Fire, host Virginia Anzengruber shares an edited panel discussion from the first of our Summer Screen Club events focusing on Shrill - the hilarious and poignant series on Hulu starring Aidy Bryant - based on the novel "Shrill: Notes from a Loud Woman" by Lindy West. 

One night each month this Summer, Fountain Street Church will host a panel discussion featuring regional non-profit organizations, and film & television experts to dissect, analyze, and discuss some of today’s most thought-provoking TV shows. All Summer Screen Club events are free and open to the public. You watch the shows at your own pace, on your own schedule. Once a month we will meet to talk about them. It’s like a book club that you can binge watch.

The Summer Screen Club is presented as part of Fountain Street Church's new education initiative: The Learning Commons. To find out more about The Learning Commons, please visit: hhttps://www.facebook.com/TheLearningCommonsAtFSC.

Panelists for this event include Sarah Vesely, Director of the Wealthy Theatre; and Lydia VanHoven-Cook, Co-Founder of The Grand Rapids Feminist Film Festival and Board Member of Better Body Image Conference (our non-profit sponsor for this event).
