Some of my stories in F*ck Fiction: True Tales of Life & Death in Paradise were written in the extra bedroom of my childhood home in Miami many years ago. Others were written more recently here in Los Angeles. Some were first performed as part of a late-night variety show called No Shame Theatre on Miami Beach a long time ago. All of them were first performed at Los Angeles’ longest storytelling forum Sit ‘N Spin, at The Comedy Central Stage at The Hudson Theatre. Several were told at Tell It, Tales from Tinseltown, Radio Picture Show, and other storytelling forums in and around Los Angeles over the last 15 years. Now, all the stories are here, conveniently all in one place at the Fringe, in, “F*ck Fiction: True Tales of Life & Death in Paradise.”
Comps are available for members of the press upon request.
