A trip to a far-off place\, a strange encounter with an eccentric person\, an adventure with new people. This show aims to explore all things "Out There" and those times we step out of our comfort zone\, challenge ourselves and gain a better understanding of our capabilities--and limitations. About Long Story Short: Long Story Short is not just a storytelling event. It's an opportunity to share the funniest moments life brings us\, the deepest human emotions\, and the strangest day of your life with complete strangers. This bare-bones storytelling series\, hosted by Beth LaMontagne Hall\, is free of pretense and over-rehearsed monologues. The show throws a mix of professional writers\, performers\, and average folks who have no public speaking experience whatsoever on stage with just a mic and a spotlight to tell a personal story based on that show's theme. What makes Long Story Short unique is the off-the-cuff feel many of the stories have\, including each show's one open mic slot. A brave volunteer from the audience is selected at random and must take the stage in a moment's notice to open the second half\, not even the host knows what's going to happen.
