UPCOMING the last Open Stage Show in 2021
"I wondered what happened when you offered yourself to someone, and they opened you, only to discover you were not the gift they expected and they had to smile and nod and say thank you all the same."
— Jodi Picoult (My Sister's Keeper)
Let’s cozy up together and share true, personal tales of gifts:
a surprise visit; a burnt Beef Wellington; another fondue set; Christmas pajamas; the wrong color, the wrong size, the wrong choice; the perfect gift from the wrong person; unexpected generosity; gifts you can’t buy; gifts you can’t accept; gifts you cherish, hide, return, re-gift; desires that were fulfilled, misinterpreted, extinguished; are you acting or really happy about that eh… gift?
Tell us about a memorable time you gave or received an unexpected gift.
