There are times in our lives when we are not merely faced with “a” choice; we’re making “the” choice. Sit by or stand up. Find your home here or find it out there. Keep it to yourself or speak up. Play it safe or go for broke. Sometimes we go seeking these pivotal moments by taking the less traveled path; other times it smacks us in the head. Join us for a night when four storytellers take us on their journeys as they discover what matters to them in the choices they make.

A note about ticket sales
In person shows have three ticket levels in order to increase financial accessibility and transparency around what it actually costs to produce a 2nd Story show. All ticket tiers receive the same show experience.
$125 - This ticket level reflects Transparency. It covers the real cost of creating a 2nd Story experience.
$25 - This ticket level reflects Balance. Less than full cost, it helps us grow and share more stories.
$7 - This ticket level reflects Care. It’s here for ease–so everyone can be a part of the story without financial strain.
Livestream
2nd Story streams all of its regular season shows on Zoom. The livestream is free, but you do need to register to receive the link. Registration is open until the livestream ends.
Stream Later
Stream later tickets sales now close 24 hours AFTER the event. Example: If a show begins at 6:00pm on Sunday, tickets will remain open until 6:00pm on Monday.
The stream later link is sent out via system email around 12:00pm CT on the day after ticket sales close.
