Speakeasy invites some of Pittsburgh’s funniest storytellers to tell a true story while musician FeralCat and DJ Fadewell provide a real time soundtrack. But when the story ends, we’re just getting started. Host Alan Olifson (Moth, WordPlay) takes you behind the story, interviewing each storyteller to ask the burning questions you’d ask if you were sitting next to them at the bar. It’s Late Night for the NPR set.
Featuring special guests:
- Todd Shaffer: was a regular storyteller at the Moth in Pittsburgh and his stories have appeared on the Moth Radio Hour as well as the RSK! podcast. He’s also been in Just Sayin’, WordPlay, Drinking Stories and many other true storytelling shows.
- Brett Sullivan Santry: Working variously in theatre as an actor
director, teaching artist, and dramaturg, he holds MFA and MLitt degrees from Mary Baldwin
University’s Shakespeare in Performance program, as well as a BA in Playwriting and Directing
Goddard College.
