Stoop Story Tellers

Tonight, a friend told a moving and funny story at the Stoop Storytelling Series at Center Stage. I'll link to it when they post it online.

In the middle of the sold-out show, the organizers ask audience members to put their name in a hat if they want to tell their own three-minute story around the theme. The theme was animals, and I certainly have plenty to tell. On a whim, I put my name in.

My name was called! I told my 3-minute story about the lying garbage man coming into our yard, about my dog allegedly biting him, of the $10,000 lawsuit, of his lies, and of the trial, which I won. I missed a few details that would have given me some more laughs, but I still think it went over well. I couldn't believe I did it!
