The hit public-radio series is back for an evening of funny, mysterious and poignant short stories about love, performed live by eminent actors. In collaboration with the Department of English & Creative Writing

Just in time for Valentine's, Palentine's and, for you non-believers, a beautiful Saturday in February, Selected Shorts returns to the Hop with surprising romances, competing desires and unexpected encounters. Grab your partner, best friends or arch-nemesis for this special night! Stay tuned for casting news.

Selected Shorts was conceived at Symphony Space in New York City in 1985 with one simple premise—great short stories performed by great actors. Flash-forward nearly 40 years, and Selected Shorts is broadcast on over 150 radio stations around the country, with more than 100,000 downloads every week. Each Selected Shorts is a completely original and unique evening of literature brought to life.

Dartmouth's Creative Writing Program will host a short story writing contest open to all undergraduates. The winner will be selected in collaboration with Selected Shorts' producers, and will be performed as part of the event.
