(mostly) TRUE THINGS Storytelling Show Returns For First Performance of 2017 in Newly-Renovated Port Jefferson Theater
(MOSTLY) TRUE THINGS, Long Island's first local storytelling show returns to the newly-renovated Performing Arts Studio, 224 E. Main St. in Port Jefferson, NY 11777 on Sunday January 29, 2017 at 4 pm. This show was created by Long Island-based writer/performer Jude Treder-Wolff who has been featured three times on the ground-breaking storytelling podcast RISK! and has performed at storytelling shows across Long Island and in Manhattan including The PIT and The Moth. Tickets are $10 online at www.mostlytruethings.com, or $15 at the door (cash only).
(MOSTLY) TRUE THINGS is a game wrapped in a storytelling show that has played to packed houses in Long Island for the past 2 years and also features a successful teen version of the show. The show branched out to Manhattan in 2016 where it played to packed and enthusiastic houses at The PIT Loft. The storytelling line-up rotates for each show and includes Moth Winners, Award-winning playwrights, and performers from UCB, The PIT, and Second City.
The game is this: one storyteller tells the unvarnished truth, the other 3 include carefully-crafted little white lies. The audience gets to question the storytellers, who can improvise their responses. then vote for the person they think told it straight. With some improvised story-inspired music and songs written for the show by host/creator Jude Treder-Wolff and Wells Hanley. There are prizes involved, if you can believe a thing like that.
This performance will feature stories told by Stevie GB, one of Long Island's funniest and most successful comics; Dawn Power Borchers, MBA and comic; Brian Murray, former television programmer for Disney, the WB and the CW; Richard Cotillo, a three-time Moth winner.
