Last week, at a 150-year-old church in New York’s Upper West Side, hundreds of readers, subscribers, and fans flocked to Rayne Fisher-Quann’s first ‘Secrets Reading.’ The evening included readings from seven emerging talents in writing, who read an anonymized secret by one of the other readers—one which had never been shared before. Songs by Madonna, played by the church organist on one of the oldest organs in New York City, accompanied their walk down the aisle for each reading. Attendees called the evening “a communal release,” “radical,” and “of course, the writing was incredible, and so well performed.” Thank you to everyone who came and to all the amazing readers for sharing their story.
