Deep Dish Book Discussions

CHAPEL HILL – The Deep Dish Theater Company will host an informal discussion of P.G. Wodehouse’s “Carry On, Jeeves,” on Thursday, March 8 at 7 p.m. Presented in conjunction with the theater’s production of “The Rivals,” which will be performed that evening at 8 p.m., the talk will take place in Tyndall Galleries in University Mall. The discussion will be led by Dr. Evelyn Daniel and is free and open to the public; no prior attendance or registration is required.

“Carry On, Jeeves," is the second in Wodehouse’s classic collection of short stories featuring the unflappable servant Jeeves and his hapless employer, Bertie Wooster. First published in 1925, “Carry On, Jeeves” includes Jeeves’ and Bertie’s first meeting, as well as the only story narrated by Jeeves himself.

Dr. Daniel teaches and does research in the School of Information and Library Science at UNC-CH. For the Deep Dish Theater, she has led discussions of such books as Julian Barnes’ “Arthur and George,” Barbara Ehrenreich’s “Nickel and Dimed,” and Ernest J. Gaines’ “A Lesson Before Dying.”

The Deep Dish Theater Company’s production of “The Rivals,” Sheridan’s immortal romantic comedy of manners, will be presented from Thursday, February 15, through Saturday, March 10. For reservations and information, please call 968-1515.
