Goblin, Secret Chiefs 3 @ Music Hall of Williamsburg

The New Yorker Festival
The annual compendium of erudite discussions and other fun stuff concludes tonight. Among the offerings: Paul Simon with Paul Muldoon; and a talk called “Television and Politics” with comedian W. Kamau Bell, Veep and In the Thick of It creator Armando Iannucci, The Good Wife‘s Robert & Michelle King, and Grey’s Anatomy‘s Shonda Rhimes with Emily Nussbaum. Tickets to most events are sold out, but there are always a few standbys available before the show.
