BEND AN EAR — IT HAPPENED HERE!

WEDNESDAY, July 22

7pm – 8:30pm (Doors at 6:30pm)

Bennington Theater (331 Main Street)

Join us for an evening of stand-up storytelling with a twist! In collaboration with the Bennington Theater, we’re bringing local voices to the stage for an event that’s all about the stories, quirks, and unique moments that make our town special.

Presenters include Santos Madhieu, Charles Suss, Ahmad Yassir, Nate Cornwell, Kate Musso, Zarghoona Lalayoi, and our very own Damien McCaffery.

Only in Bennington is the one event in town where the stars are people you probably know — and by the end of the evening, you’ll know them better than you did before. Get ready for seven wild tales told by neighbors old and new, in a rapid-fire slide format. Only rules; the stories have to be about Bennington, and they have to be true. This is our third installment, and we’ll have recent immigrants, a lifelong resident, a local celebrity, a Bowery boy, and a surpise guest!

Damien McCaffery, Assistant Director of Engagement and Editorial Projects at Bennington Museum is leading the charge on this event. He says, “You will know someone on stage that night. At the very least, you’ll know of them. So you think you know your neighbors? Prepare to be surprised!”

Tickets are $10 for Bennington Museum OR Bennington Theater members.

Not-Yet-Members: $15 advance purchase or $20 at the door
