FEATURED TELLER: Bob Reiser telling Dangerous Stories!

A little HiStory: Before there was the Moth, Speakeasy or Liars Show, there was STORYTELLING at the Cornelia Street Cafe. Beginning in 1997, storytellers and story listeners have been coming to The Cornelia Cafe on the 2nd Tuesday of each month for the "love of story!" We have featured more than 200 professional tellers, and countless others have stepped up to the Mic to swap a story! There is no judging, no contest, just great fun!
On this 9th of June, come early and sign up for the OPEN TELLING (Open Mic). Know that everyone's a winner.

($7 includes on drink)

While I was only 2 l/2, I remember that day as though it were yesterday…thus began my journey as a story teller, story listener…”
