The Honest Truth
Is it okay to lie sometimes? Yes. Yes, it is.
Recorded on 7/21/14 at Happy Hour Story Hour at UCB East, hosted by Julia Wiedeman.
Cold Soup
A mundane bowl of soup transforms itself into a life-altering lesson in the nature of memory. Reworked and updated for 2014.
Knockoff
Here I tell a story of my family’s acquisition of not one but two dream homes in California in the 1970s, a time during which we were clearly living — and loving — beyond our means.
Dream House
Have you ever felt lost and, worse than that, deliberately led astray? It’s a bad feeling. Especially when you’re paying for the privilege. Here I tell the story of my 14 years exploring the mysterious, serpentine corridors of psychoanalysis — and what happened when I declared my intention to leave therapy.
Performing: Mon, Nov 4 at Talk Therapy
On Monday, Nov 4 I’ll be doing some standup as part of the just-relocated Talk Therapy Storytelling show at Three of Cups in the E. Village. Get the details here.
