Audiences seeking a night of fun, games and true stories should come on down to Dance Place when SpeakeasyDC presents SpeakeasyDC’s Story Showdown: A Storytelling Game Show.  In a format first performed during the Capital Fringe Festival in 2010, SpeakeasyDC’s Story Showdown will be reprised in two performances, as host Rob Parker (Kevin Boggs) oversees a highly interactive, ridiculously fun night of competition comprised of autobiographical stories and audience participation.

Presented as part of Dance Place’s “Words That Move Us” series, this edition of SpeakeasyDC’s Story Showdown features four rounds of games – Cliffhanger, Cover Up, Memory and Switcheroo – with contestants chosen at random from the audience. With stories about men’s consciousness raising groups, strange Canadians and unfettered obsessions, everyone who attends will be a winner in this spectacular evening of entertainment.

In addition to host Kevin Boggs and announcer Todd Toddy, the cast of SpeakeasyDC’s Story Showdown includes Mike Boyd, Regie Cabico, Diane Ivey, Mike Kane, Len Kruger, Vijai Nathan, Adam Ruben and Kate Schuler.
