The Stoop Live Radio Show Plays CENTERSTAGE 6/3-5

The Stoop Storytelling Series is delighted to present "Cool. Cruel. High School," a live radio show commemorating the pain and pleasure of that most curious of institutions. We'll wax poetic and comedic about nerds and jocks; the marching band; the prom; those creepy sex-ed films from Health class; and so much more. It's our love (hate?) letter to high school: "Rebel without a Cause" meets "The Outsiders," crossed with "Breakfast Club" and "Glee."

This one-of-a-kind Baltimore happening will feature old-time sketch comedy from the Stoop radio players; performances from local musicians The Egg Babies Orchestra, Victoria Vox, and The 5th L; and an original song, "Cool. Cruel. High School," written by local writer Janet Gilbert. And, of course, it wouldn't be The Stoop without true, personal tales from a collection of Baltimore's finest.

Aaron Henkin of "The Signal" on WYPR-FM will host the show-and WYPR will broadcast it at noon and 7 p.m. on June 11 and 18.
