Tampa Bay playwright and author Mark Lieb releases new book with two St. Pete events

For 17 (!!) years, Mark Lieb’s Creative Loafing Tampa Bay byline set its gaze on the Bay area theater scene, delivering glowing reviews and pull-no-punches criticism.

This week, the playwright and author presents his own work for review in the form of a new novel, “Image Breaker,” about a know-it-all writer whose confidence takes a backseat to hallucinations about how he’s wasting his life.

This weekend in St. Petersburg—for a Sunday chat inside Studio@620, and again on Tuesday at Tombolo Books—Lieb celebrates the release. There’s no cover for the Tombolo event, and a $5 admission fee for Sunday’s book talk. Subscribe to Creative Loafing newsletters.
