Additional Public Forum events include Stephen Sondheim and Tony Kushner, who will reunite for a Jan. 17, 2012, discussion at the Skirball Center that will focus on Sondheim's second installment of his memoir and lyric anthology, "Look, I Made a Hat," which is due Nov. 22. Rocco Landesman will moderate.
