Event
(mostly) TRUE THINGS February Storytelling Show
(mostly) TRUE THINGS is Long Island's first local Moth-style storytelling event and has a unique twist: Four storytellers and only one of them is telling the unvarnished truth. By the end of the evening, the whole truth comes out, with the help of the audience. Prizes are involved. Its a great evening and so freaking cheap
