Be Kind, Rewind: Stories of nostalgia, hindsight and do-overs

This month Arctic Entries brings you “Be Kind. Rewind: Stories of nostalgia, hindsight and do-overs.” In the spirit of This American Life, The Moth and other storytelling events, Arctic Entries brings Alaskans to the stage to share their personal stories: funny, sad and sweet. At every performance, people tell a seven-minute long true story about themselves relating to the show’s theme. Local musicians perform a few songs as well. Proceeds made from Arctic Entries’s ticket sales go to a non-profit partner selected at the beginning of each season.

STORYTELLERS:

  • Holly Brooks - "From Coach to Competitor"
  • Jacqui Lambert - "Cutting the Line"
  • Allen Thompson - "Valley of the 10,000 Smokes"
  • Megan Edge - "Spring Creek Boys"
  • Susan Pacillo - "Parking Fairies"
  • Donteh Devoe - "My Best Friend"
  • Destiny Waller & Michele McKean - "Blessed and Restored"
