Join us at Tiger! Tiger! Tavern on Tuesday May 10 at 8pm for an evening of true stories featuring:
…with your host Mary Robertson. The show is as free as the air you breathe, and Tiger! Tiger! serves up a wide variety of delicious beers and eats for your dining/drinking enjoyment. See you there.
In honor of Mother’s Day and “Tongues,” our theme for May, today we’re sharing a story that features fifth-grade frenching, sibling blackmail, and one super smart mom. This story was told by Steph Gustafson on 16 December 2015 at Buntport Theater in Denver Colorado; the theme of that evening was “Siblings.”
Our regular monthly shows are just around the corner—first on 10 May in San Diego at Tiger!Tiger! Tavern and then on 18 May in Denver at Buntport Theater. Both shows are free, both start at 8pm, and both will focus on the theme “Tongues.”
In Denver, we are teaming up with the Forum Stories and the Misunderstood podcast on 14 May for a special evening entitled Totally Normal, where The Narrators favorites like Timmi Lasley and Debbie Scheer will share stories about the humanity, humor and totally ordinary world of mental health. Hope to see you there!

This week’s story comes to you from Blair Overstreet. Blair is a writer and educator, and produces shows for our friends at So Say We All, a juggernaut of the San Diego storytelling/literary community. Blair’s story was recorded live on 8 March at Tiger!Tiger! Tavern in San Diego, California and the theme for the evening was “OUCH!” Blair’s story may evince some wincing, as it was perfectly aligned with the theme.

This week’s story comes from Rae Moore, who shares a lovely story of growing up as a home-schooled child with her three siblings. Rae’s story was recorded live on February 17th at Buntport Theater in Denver, Colorado and the theme of the evening was “DIY or DIE.”
A few upcoming events: A Moment of Truth, our special all-improvised storytelling collaboration with Finest City Improv, is this Saturday, 23 April in San Diego, so be sure to grab your tickets at finestcityimprov.com. In Denver, we are teaming up with the Forum Stories and the Misunderstood podcast on 14 May for a special evening entitled Totally Normal, where The Narrators favorites like Timmi Lasley and Debbie Scheer will be sharing stories about the humanity, humor and totally ordinary world of mental health.
And, right now at Buntport Theater in Denver, our beloved co-host Erin Rollman is doing a solo one-act play entitled The Rembrandt Room. We don’t typically promote Buntport’s shows on our podcast, since they are works of fiction, but this one is really special. It feels like something you’d see at The Narrators—a smart, funny and surprisingly personal story told by the most peculiar museum docent in the world. Erin puts on an incredible performance, one that cannot be missed. Make your reservations now at buntport.com.

Today’s story comes to you from San Diego writer Joe Holland, recorded live on 8 March 2016 at Tiger!Tiger! Tavern in San Diego, California; the theme of the evening was “Ouch.”
Thanks to everyone who came out to our 6th anniversary show at Buntport Theater in Denver this month. We are incredibly grateful for the support of our storytellers and our audience, both of which surprise us every month by the depth of their humanity, their humor and strength. We look forward to spending six more years with you.
A special thanks also to the good folks who came out to our new monthly show in collaboration with Finest City Improv in San Diego. Moment of Truth made its debut on March 18th and we had a blast working with the audience to develop themes that volunteers would choose at random and improvise a five-minute true story around. It was exhilarating!
Our regular April shows will be turning to the theme of “All is Fair…” and we have a few special collaborations coming down the pipe, so keep an eye out for details.
