BustingOut Storytelling: 'Faking It'
Leg Two | 6:30 PM - 7:30 PM | 25. The Layover Lounge

FB Icon

Event Description

Talk dirty but not too much. Dance like an Egyptian. Look good in low rise jeans. Make tiramisu from scratch. Drive a boat. Pack without suspicion.

Life is full of overwhelming expectations and acting confident is just a part of it. Sometimes it's all too much and we forget we're faking. Until we're busted, or out ourselves. Like tonight - true stories told live.

Curator: Kay DeMartini
