Tonight Thursday, 5/28 at 7 pm EST, Join Paul(i) Reese as they curate a group of comics, artists, and performers in an hour designed to remind us that, even in our most isolated times, we are still connected - in our laughter, our spirits, our stories. Each performer will tell a story inspired by the one they just heard - no preparation, no script, no safety net. At the end of the hour, one audience member could have the opportunity to tell a short story of their own. Featuring: Sofia Javed, Joli Reichel, Cecelia Watson, Randie Welles, Iva Yos. The link to the $5 show is on our website, Philly Improv Theater .com⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #storytelling #storytellers #storytellingshow #improvonline #virtualshow #livestreaming #onlineshows #liveentertainment #supportthearts #phillycomedy #phillycomedians #phillystorytellers #Storyteller #PhiladelphiaStory #PhillyStoryteller #PhillyComedy #PhillyComedian #PhillyPoet
