Stories + Wine = Damn Good Time
The 2nd Story Festival brings together Chicago's finest writer/performances for three weekends of great stories and great wine at Webster's Wine Bar. Personal and true, the stories run the gamut: some will knock you on your ass laughing, some will start the teardrops a-welling. Stories also integrate the aural stylings of a DJ/sound designer. And between each tale, there's enough downtime to chat with friends or your date and sip/chug a flight of wine. (Full disclosure: I'm a storyteller with the festival this year, which means I've been lucky enough to hear some of these performers in rehearsal and seriously cannot wait to hear the final versions.) Check out a preview performance this Sunday, and then the festival kicks into high gear on April 24. More information and tickets at www.storiesandwine.com.
