It was as little children that many of us began our passion as story listeners. Every night we begged, “Just one more story, pleeeease!” No other experience fuels the feelings of anticipation, empathy and satisfaction as sitting in the dark and hearing a fresh and mysterious story that magically seems to be created just for you. Funny, serious, historical, fictional, autobiographical - the entertaining anecdotes shared at Shelter Skelter Storytelling Extravaganza are like a delicious box of chocolates, you don’t know exactly what you’re gonna get (except a guaranteed completely different box of yummy chocolates every show.) The intimate Shelter Theater invites you to binge on an afternoon of delectable tales, live music and a special treat this time - magic!
With a background in stand-up comedy and a long running San Francisco hit show “Miss-Matches.com”, producer Leslie Beam promises an eclectic mix of compelling stories and performers in a fast moving show that includes live music. Perpetually on the lookout for amusing and charismatic characters, as a native Texan, Beam doesn’t believe in letting truth stand in the way of a good story. Will your storytellers be indulging in historical revisionism? Come decide for yourself.
