A new event for our storytelling series, Stories @ The Playhouse, is here! Sierra Madre Playhouse presents Best of BackStory, an evening of true stories, poetry, and flights of fancy featuring host Carl Weintraub and stories written and told by Augustus Britton, Rashim Cannad, Marlene Nichols, Laurie O'Brien, Sue Ann Pien, and Antonio Sacre.

BackStory, produced by the Victory Theatre Center in Burbank, is an evening of true stories, poetry, and flights of fancy, all told around a theatrical theme. The theme is always the title of a memorable play or movie. Writers can focus on the themes of the play or movie, the characters, or simply on the words in the title. For Best of BackStory, at Sierra Madre Playhouse, we are creating an evening of true stories that have been told at BackStory over the past seven years. Each story will be from a different episode of BackStory, so it will be an eclectic night for sure.

CONSUMER ADVISORY: some stories may contain strong language and sexual content.

Runtime: 60 minutes, no intermission.

The wearing of face masks is recommended at this event.
