Autobiographical Fiction is an entirely improvised solo show created by the audience (including you)!

This is a chance to be creative, collaborative, and a little silly as you unleash your inner playwright/director/set designer/sound designer/costume designer! *Audience participation is never mandatory. Your'e safe. We promise...SHOULD I BRING ANYTHING? As a matter of fact... Yes (if you'd like to)!!  While we will provide sticky notes and writing utensils (and some festive props/set) we would love you to bring something from home that you would like to donate this holiday season!
