The Moth Story Slam @ Martyrs
The Moth presents its monthly Story Slam event tonight at Martyrs (3855 N. Lincoln) at 8pm. Ten randomly selected storytellers get to expound on the evening's theme, with the winner chosen by a panel of judges. Tickets are $8 at the door. Arrive early, because this event packs the house.
Toxoplasmosis @ Museum of Contemporary Art
On the fourth Tuesday of the month, MCA's Face the Strange series features original, offbeat musicians from Chicago and elsewhere: tonight, they bring you Toxoplasmosis, "a mix of composition and improvisation with a sparse, unpolished sound" by way of bass and organ. 220 E Chicago Ave, 6-7pm. Free!
