We’re keeping it real as the greatest storytellers of a “certain age” tell the best stories with life experience, resilience, and the humor and heartbreak that come with time. Laugh, cry, wonder what it was like to use a dial phone and grab a drink while you listen to marvelous tales from voices that come with decades of living.
Screw Ageism! Screw The Substance! Screw AI & Chat GPT (this blurb was written by an old human… )! Come and see New Tricks!
March’s theme is…
SHAKE IT OFF as our storytellers will bring you the best stories about letting go, moving on and more!
New Tricks Stories, a unique storytelling event, features seasoned storytellers over forty sharing their rich life experiences. Held monthly at QED Astoria, the event draws talent from renowned platforms like The Moth and PBS.
