Dustin Lance Black & Craig Borten at The Writer’s Room

Love the written word but hate the puffed-up pretension of literary events? Enter The Writer's Room with Reza Aslan, a refreshing take on the typically staid literary event. Expect live music, audience participation and a few too many drinks being consumed — in other words: a good party. Through their writing, Dustin Lance Black (J Edgar, Milk) and Craig Borten (Dallas Buyers Club) have shined a bright light on LBGT issues -- all while not making LBGT-specific films (but Oscar winning films). This subtle finesse means their films carry profound messages to a broad, worldwide audience. We are excited to welcome two of the most talented, and socially important, screenwriters on the scene today to The Writer's Room. Doors open at 7pm. Show starts at 8pm. Guest & friends of Andaz West Hollywood receive a $10 discount by using offer code AndazDiscount, regular ticket price is $30 ($20 with the Andaz discount).
