Storyboom

Sunday, June 11, 2023 @ 7:30pm

Join us as six storytellers take the stage to bare their souls, performing true stories from their own lives, based on the theme “Big Finish.” Stories may be funny or sad, or both. Come hear stories about leaping across the finish line or barely getting it done, kicking it to the curb, burning down the house, going out on a high note, and more.

The Evening’s Storytellers:
David Dean Bottrell
Joe Charnitski
Matthew Dicks
Ophira Eisenberg
Dion Flynn
Luz Michelle 

Storyboom brings together master storytellers, friends and neighbors to share in the art and power of live storytelling. The show is the collective brainchild of two wonderfully talented and “storied” White Plains residents, Danielle Dardashti, Emmy Award-winning documentarian, and Ivy Eisenberg, the award-winning humor writer, storyteller and comedian (PBS “Stories from the Stage,” She Makes Me Laugh Comedy Festival, Perfect Liars Club). Together, the two “Moth StorySLAM” champions bring together master storytellers, sharing true stories face-to-face with a live audience.
