It’s kind of like stage fright, but a lot more fun.
7 storytellers will tell 7 stories, each 7 minutes.
Alpine Playhouse and McCall Arts and Humanities Council will be hosting three Stage Flight events annually during the months of January, February, March and/or April.
Stories Start at 7pm. Unless we have 2 performances that evening, in which case 6pm and 8pm.
Your unique stories take audiences on a personal and shared flight of fancy—seven minutes at a time! The premise is simple (and highly entertaining): Seven storytellers have seven minutes to regale a live audience with a personal story centered on a common theme.
