Port Washington, NY - February 29th, 2016 - The March 26, 2016 performance of (Mostly) True Things, a monthly storytelling show that features true stories - with a twist - told live, without notes and the only one of its kind on Long Island will be at The Dolphin Bookshop and Café, 299 Main St. Port Washington, NY at 7 pm.

The line-up of storytellers includes Mary Theresa Archbold, whose story “Our Normal” was on NPR”s Moth Radio Hour and was interviewed in NPR’s This American Life episode titled “In Plain Sight,” Long Island comic Stevie Gb, and Robin Bady, who performs all over the world and offers storytelling shows in her Brooklyn home and was awarded the 2012 JJ Reneax Emerging Artist Grant.



 

This show is an entirely unique entertainment experience that includes hilarious and heartful stories as well as a game that involves the audience. All the stories except one include carefully-crafted deceptions, and the audience has an opportunity to question the storytellers, then vote for the person who told the unvarnished truth. Audience members who choose the correct person get a prize.

Tickets are $10 online until 5 pm on the day of the show, available on the Mostly True Things website. Tickets are $15 at the door (cash only).  Call 631-366-4265 to reserve seats. Complete information and ticket purchasing options are available at www.mostlytruethings.com.
