'THE BELIEVER'

Filling that dread space between the idiosyncratic culture of the young intellectual and the academic ponderousness of the old guard is The Believer, a monthly magazine about books and stuff. Their first soiree features co-editor Heidi Julavits talking with Jennifer Egan, Susan Choi, and Stephen Elliott about political fiction post 9-11—plus Touré interviewing Q-Tip we hope, Chipp Kidd talking to Milton Glaser, extreme banjo-playing, and more.

DAYTON CONTEMPORARY DANCE COMPANY

Celebrating the centenary of Orville and Wilbur Wright's first flight, as well as its own 35th anniversary, this terrific group commissioned choreographers Bill T. Jones, Bebe Miller, Dwight Rhoden, Jawole Willa Jo Zollar, Sir Warren Spears, and Doug Varone to make dances inspired by the idea of flight; three of them offer work on each of two different programs. Go twice. ZIMMER

At 7:30, and December 10 through 13, BAM Harvey Theater, 651 Fulton Street, Brooklyn, 718.636.4100

Film

'THE GIRL WITH THE HAT BOX'

Made in 1927, this charming housing-shortage comedy is Russian director Boris Barnet's best-known movie, mainly because it features the future failed Hollywood star Anna Sten, here a Soviet Kewpie doll with bee-stung lips, working for a shady, profiteering milliner. Pianist Donald Sosin supplies appropriate live music. HOBERMAN

At 7:30, BAM Rose Cinema, 30 Lafayette Avenue, Brooklyn, 718.777.FILM
