SpeakEasy is . . .
A new twist on the ancient tradition of oral history.
SpeakEasy is people telling stories-- true stories. Period. No scripts. No crib notes. No rehearsals.

SpeakEasy has a dynamic and constantly changing cast of storytellers that include such greats as Mike Daisey, Jonathan Ames, and Reno, along with homemakers, lawyers, dog walkers, street magicians and writers.

You never know what you'll hear. So join us for what could be a life changing experience!

It happens twice a month at Manhattan's Cornelia Sreet Cafe and Brooklyn's Biscuit BBQ.

SpeakEasy Storytellers
On Their Own Time

SpeakEasy's producer

Sherry Weaver loves stories! She created SpeakEasy because she couldn't convince people to climb into bed with her at night and tell her stories. She hosts SpeakEasy and has been likened to a den mother, ushering well-known and up-and-coming storytellers up onto the stage with her candid and solicitous manner.
