That's What She Said: Storytelling by and for Women
Imagine The Moth, but just for women.
That's What She Said is a live storytelling series where real women take the mic and share true stories told from memory, no notes.
Funny. Honest. Sometimes messy. Always worth hearing.
Join us for an evening of stories that make you laugh, nod, and feel a little less alone. Wine, non-alcoholic beverages, and light bites included.
