Fairfield Theatre Company
70 Sanford Street, Fairfield, CT
Tickets: $15 each, general admission
Benefit tickets: $500/pair. Includes reserved VIP seating and a post-event meet and greet with Corey Flintoff.

In this extraordinary "Join the Conversation" event, you'll hear from Corey Flintoff, the senior NPR correspondent who has just returned from Russia where he spent four years reporting on the Western world's biggest challenger. 

He'll discuss the misinformation, disinformation, propaganda and outright lies that cloud America's discussions about Russia. Flintoff covered the Ukrainian revolution, Russia's seizure of Crimea, the war in eastern Ukraine, the downing of Malaysian Airlines' Flight 17, and the Olympic sports doping scandal, among other key events.
