Description:

We can all relate to the desire to feel comfortable, safe, secure. But what about those moments when we took a chance and gambled with our relationships, our futures, or even our lives? This month we bring you stories that remind us that on the road to reward, we all have to take some risks. 

Hosted by Shane M Hanlon and Farah Z Ahmad.

The Story Collider was founded in 2010 by Ben Lillie and Brian Wecht, two physicists who met at a storytelling show in Queens and quickly realized that they could do that too. Since then, The Story Collider has been bringing true, personal stories about science to life both through our many live shows as well as our weekly podcast, and we've used what we've learned about science and stories to teach scientists to use narrative in our university and corporate workshop program.

Doors open at 7:30pm, show begins at 8:00pm. Seating is mix of chairs and standing room, please arrive early for best seats.
