SUMMARY:Minnesota Fringe: More Better Stories with Jon Carlson
DESCRIPTION:“Oz-America”\n \nDuring the past thirty years\, I have lived for three years in Minneapolis’ Phillips neighborhood; twenty in Whittier; seven in Eau Claire\, Wisconsin; and\, most recently\, several months in the Saint Anthony Park neighborhood in Saint Paul\, Minnesota. Having been born August 19\,1973 in Denver\, Colorado\, the only official citizenship I have ever held is that of the United States of America. \nBut\, having worked for railroads for the past thirteen years\, I have also been a de facto citizen of what I like to call “Greater Trumpistan\,” since Railroaders are among the most vehement of our country’s politically enraged MAGA devotees. The contrasting energies of my work and my polity inspire me–artistically– to alchemize both MAGA rage and the rage that animates The Resistance. This political and artistic intention has crystalized through immersion in the storytelling community at the American School of Storytelling\, an experience that keeps teaching me that not only can Imagination and Humor dance with Rage\, they desire to do so for the sake of the soul’s liberation and human solidarity. \n\n$15 cash tickets at the door only! (Sorry\, no additional button discount for cash tickets) $25 advance credit card tickets and information at More Better Stories \nShowtimes: Tuesday\, August 11 at 7:00pm; Wednesday\, August 12 at 7:00pm; Sunday\, August 16 at 2:30pm

SUMMARY:Minnesota Fringe: More Better Stories with Laura Packer
DESCRIPTION:“Mermaids\, Monsters\, & Mysterious Strangers: Stories of the Unknown and Unexpected”\n \nNot everything can be explained. Not all strangers are who they seem. Not every monster is what you expect. Award-winning storyteller Laura Packer (Staff Pick\, MN Fringe 2022) explores the creatures we fear\, the visitors we can’t explain\, and the moments when ordinary life cracks open to reveal something strange and precious underneath. Stories based in folklore\, magic\, and real-life invite you to feel delight\, dread\, and maybe even hope. Bring your curiosity. Leave your certainty at the door. Let your imagination lead\, then dive into the deep end of the unknown. \n\n$15 cash tickets at the door only! (Sorry\, no additional button discount for cash tickets) $25 advance credit card tickets and information at More Better Stories \nShowtimes: Saturday\, August 15 at 8:30pm \n

SUMMARY:Minnesota Fringe: More Better Stories with Jon Carlson
DESCRIPTION:“Oz-America”\n \nDuring the past thirty years\, I have lived for three years in Minneapolis’ Phillips neighborhood; twenty in Whittier; seven in Eau Claire\, Wisconsin; and\, most recently\, several months in the Saint Anthony Park neighborhood in Saint Paul\, Minnesota. Having been born August 19\,1973 in Denver\, Colorado\, the only official citizenship I have ever held is that of the United States of America. \nBut\, having worked for railroads for the past thirteen years\, I have also been a de facto citizen of what I like to call “Greater Trumpistan\,” since Railroaders are among the most vehement of our country’s politically enraged MAGA devotees. The contrasting energies of my work and my polity inspire me–artistically– to alchemize both MAGA rage and the rage that animates The Resistance. This political and artistic intention has crystalized through immersion in the storytelling community at the American School of Storytelling\, an experience that keeps teaching me that not only can Imagination and Humor dance with Rage\, they desire to do so for the sake of the soul’s liberation and human solidarity. \n\n$15 cash tickets at the door only! (Sorry\, no additional button discount for cash tickets) $25 advance credit card tickets and information at More Better Stories \nShowtimes: Tuesday\, August 11 at 7:00pm; Wednesday\, August 12 at 7:00pm; Sunday\, August 16 at 2:30pm
