Joel Grey, whose memoir, “Master of Ceremonies,” was published in February, will appear onstage at the Bay Street Theater in Sag Harbor on Saturday afternoon at 5 — not as master of ceremonies at the Kit Kat Klub in 1931 Berlin but as himself, an Oscar and Tony Award-winning actor, singer, dancer, and, perhaps less publicly but with no less commitment, a photographer.

Mr. Grey, 84, will read selections from his memoir, which chronicles with unflinching honesty his life onstage and off, from his childhood through his long and illustrious career on stage, screen, and television. While he is invariably associated with “Cabaret,” both on Broadway and in film, his many theater roles include Amos Hart in “Chicago” and the Wizard of Oz in “Wicked.”

In addition to the reading, Scott Schwartz, the theater’s artistic director, will lead a conversation with the actor about his life and career. Tickets, priced at $20, are available online and at the Bay Street box office.
