Tales of Summer

Six months have passed since 1 Jan. In that time, over 150 storytelling shows have captivated the DMV this! This month will give us many of the regulars shows we know and love. We also get special performances during the Capital Fringe 2019. And a new show happening in Fredericksburg, VA. From Fredrick and Baltimore MD, to Richmond and Norfolk and Roanoke VA, with many stops in the DC area, come hear stories about all of these and more. Some nights have many choices. See the links below to the shows to see which ones get your interest.

Want your show listed in a monthly blogpost? Send me info about date, time, place, and a link to your site to storytellingonpurpose365@gmail.com. I’d love to hear about, and so would the rest of the DMV.
