PUTNEY — Putney's Next Stage Arts Project presents Peter Aguero, host of NPR's Moth Radio Hour, and Ophira Eisenberg on Saturday, April 16, at 7:30 p.m.
Eisenberg (NPR's Ask Me Another, and Moth Radio storyteller) and Aguero will join forces for an evening of intimate and hilarious true stories about love and triumph, family and failure, and somehow making it through to the other side.
Aguero returns to Next Stage, having thrilled packed houses both at Next Stage and in past storyteller events at the Latchis Theatre. He was born and raised in the wilds of South Jersey and lives in Queens, N.Y.
He's a Moth StorySLAM host, GrandSLAM champion, and instructor for the MothSHOP Community Education Program. He's also the lead singer of The BTK Band, which he calls NYC's hardest-drinking improvised storytelling rock band.
Eisenberg is a Canadian comedian, writer, and actress. She is from Calgary and now lives in New York City. She is the host of the weekly NPR and WNYC trivia, puzzle, and game show Ask Me Another with the “one-man house band” Jonathan Coulton. Eisenberg appeared on the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, Comedy Central, the E! Channel, the Oxygen Network, and the Discovery Channel.
