International Whiskey Day honors the life of whiskey writer Michael Jackson — not the pop star — born March 27, 1942, whose books The World Guide to Whisky and The Complete Guide to Single Malt Scotch defined the modern appreciation canon for aged grain spirits. World Theatre Day was established in 1961 by the International Theatre Institute and UNESCO, with a new theatre artist commissioned each year to write a message on live performance’s value to society. National Spanish Paella Day celebrates the Valencian dish cooked in a wide, shallow pan over open fire — a meal so identified with its vessel that both share the name paella. Earth Hour was launched in 2007 by WWF Australia in Sydney, when 2.2 million people and 2,000 businesses switched off their lights for one hour to signal concern about climate change. Whiskey, soliloquy, saffron, and a darkened grid.
