2nd Story Spring Festival
2nd Story is a hybrid performance event combining storytelling, wine, and music that is produced by the Serendipity Theater Collective: you hang out with your friends at Webster's Wine Bar and eat and drink and make merry, and four or five times during the night, the lights go down, a spot comes up on somebody—maybe the person sitting next to you!—and they tell you a story. It's a great time, and our hope is that if we do our job right, you'll leave telling your own stories.
Read about us in Time Out Chicago and Centerstage Chicago.
