Smart bets: Listen to This

Posted on by Kat McReynolds

Gather ’round, folks — it’s story time. Asheville Community Theatre’s monthly storytelling series, Listen to This: Stories in Performance, closes its fourth season this week. Host Tom Chalmers will facilitate an evening of stories and songs performed by an assortment of Asheville’s most captivating citizens. This month, Chalmers tackles the topic of disparate power dynamics in political activism. According to a press release, attendees should expect performances in all shapes and forms: “Some are funny, some are surprising and some are frightening — but all are enormously entertaining.” Listen to This (with the theme David v. Goliath: True Tales of Taking on City Hall) takes place at 35below (at ACT), on Thursday, Aug. 28, at 7:30 p.m. $10. ashevilletheatre.org. Photo by Tommy Propest
