3/21: Brooklyn. Lies. See 'em.
Luckily, these people are not idiots. The Liar Show is proud to make its debut at this venerable and beautiful location with four of my all-time favorites. And to make matters especially festive, the ticket price includes free beer, wine and food, so have a light lunch. Please come and figure out which one of these nice people is pulling your leg. Eat, Drink and Be Gullible.

Sherry Weaver is the creator and executive producer of the live storytelling series, SpeakEasy: Stories From the Back Room. She has performed at such cool places as the Bitter End, The Nuyorican Poets Cafe, The Roxy, The Hudson River Theater and Cornelia Street Cafe. She has been likened to a den mother, ushering both well-known and up-and-coming storytellers onto the stage.

And special guest Michaela Murphy, all the way from the Great Northwest.
