An Evening with Eric Idle: Idle in Provence Live at Symphony Space

Celebrate the release of his new book, Idle in Provence, as Eric sits down in conversation with acclaimed writer Adam Gopnik (The Real Work). Step inside Idle’s French "shackeau" for a hilarious and candid look at the hill country retreat where he penned iconic scripts and songs, hosted dear friends like George Harrison and Robin Williams, and found peace away from showbiz.

Radical Duke: Danielle Allen with Sean Wilentz
Join Danielle Allen, political philosopher, as she revisits the American Revolution through a forgotten English duke and a hidden story of radical ideas that shaped two worlds.
In her new book, Radical Duke, Allen traces the life of Charles Lennox, the 3rd Duke of Richmond—an aristocrat who supported press freedom, religious tolerance, and resistance to the Crown. He also formed a secret alliance with future American Founding Father Thomas Paine. Through archival sleuthing, Allen argues that the Age of Revolution began earlier than we thought—not with the Boston patriots, but in Britain, where figures like the Duke of Richmond and his radical circle helped shape ideas about rights and popular rule before they spread to America.
Allen speaks with American historian Sean Wilentz about the Duke of Richmond and the radical movement he helped fuel—and how close it came to transforming Britain at New York Public Library’s historic 42nd Street location.
Make your free reservation for the in-person discussion or the livestream.
