Come See Me Tell It Live
There’s something special about a story told live. Whether I’m hosting, featured on a lineup, or taking the mic at my own show, I love the electric connection between storyteller and audience. Below are my upcoming and past performances—if you’re local (or virtual!), I’d love to see you there.

Storytelling Sundays: Open Mic @ 2 PM
I'm hosting an open mic with the theme Fresh.
What does fresh mean to you? What comes to mind? Is it a fresh blanket out of the dryer, going out to get fresh air after an argument, the scent of fresh morning dew (although I have no idea what that is or what that would smell like. Maybe you think of a fresh start or a fresh hell? Or my absolute favorite: fresh-baked cookies.
Translate the theme however you'd like and bring your story to the stage at The Westport Library.
Want to tell a story? That's stellar. We need people to tell their stories.
Email chachannas@gmail.com to reserve your spot and share your 5-minute true story.
Spots are limited, so letting me know in advance helps me plan the lineup.
No experience needed—just a true story and a willingness to share.
Prefer to listen? That's perfect. We need people to hear stories.
This free, community-centered event invites audiences of all ages to slow down, listen, and connect through the power of story.
