Poet and playwright Ntozake Shange will recite some of her work in - and for - her Bedford-Stuyvesant community during "An Intimate Evening with Ntozake Shange," a fundraiser at the Sugar Hill Restaurant & Supper Club, 609 DeKalb Ave. at Nostrand Avenue.
Shange is lending her prodigious talents and boldface name to a fundraiser for the Monroe Street Block Association 400. Proceeds will support the association's efforts to make the area an even better place to live and visit.

Actress, community activist and comedienne Phyllis Yvonne Stickney will host the program, which, in addition to Shange, also will include musical performances and provocative conversation.
