Holly James is an incredible local storyteller/comedian.
Last year, she came out to our open mic story swap, WILDCARD, and told pieces of a very vulnerable story of growing up in a religious cult. We were blown away!
We are so happy to have her as a featured storyteller at our next BIG show on May 15 at the Sofia (7pm)
The theme is Cults, Crackpots, Swindlers. And Holly has a powerful story planned for this show.

Snap Judgment's Glynn Washington makes a rare Sacramento appearance on Friday, May 15 at The Sofia!
Time Magazine ranked Snap Judgment as one of the best 100 podcasts of all time. Its host, Glynn Washington, uses it to give a fresh take on storytelling. Not only does he gather some of the most compelling stories ever told, but the episodes are masterfully mixed and edited with just the right music to take them to the next level. Some of the most beloved episodes include "24 Hours in Syria," "The Soundtrack of Silence," "Zoo Nebraska," and "The Real Black Klansman." Truly mind-blowing stories!
The show has even been such a success that it spun off a different podcast called Spooked, a true-life supernatural storytelling show, which regularly tours large venues and gives big groups of people the chills!
Glynn is also an amazing storyteller, unlike anyone else. His stories are raw, unique, surprising and reflect his unusual upbringing and life experiences. For the upcoming In a Nutshell storytelling show on Friday, May 15, here at the Sofia, Glynn is the perfect featured storyteller. The theme is Cults, Crackpots & Swindlers. he grew up in rural Michigan in the apocalyptic, white supremacist cult known as The Worldwide Church of God. He has quite a story about it!
At the upcoming Nutshell show on May 15, he intends to bring his A-game and will be accompanied by three other masterful storytellers: JP Frary (a Nutshell fan favorite making his 8th appearance on the monthly show), as well as local comedians/storytellers Holly James and Johnny Taylor Jr. You can catch Glynn's show Snap Judgment on CapRadio on Sundays at 3pm PST. He will be appearing on the CapRadio show Insight on Tuesday, May 12 at approx 12:30 pm PST to talk about his upcoming performance at In a Nutshell Storytelling.

We have a brand new episode of The Nutshell True Story Hour! Give it a listen at inanutshellstorytelling.com
Kathleen Taylor went to London thinking she already knew how the world worked.
She had taste. Culture. Opinions. A plan.
Then her military colleagues dropped her into underground punk clubs full of people with absolutely no interest in being impressive.
And somehow the least “worldly” person in her unit was the one everyone actually wanted to be around.

Did we mention that In a Nutshell fan favorite JP Frary will be at our next show on Fri, May 15 at the Sofia at 7p?

Johnny Taylor Jr is one of the FUNNIEST Sacramento comedians. His dry wit, keen observations and brilliant storytelling have led to him to open for HUGE comedians like Patton Oswalt, Brian Posehn, Melissa Villaseñor and the band Portugal The Man.
Last time Johnny did Nutshell, he told a hilarious low stakes story about watching Incubus as a music festival. (Patton told a crowd how amazing that story was at a show in Saratoga)
This coming show (May 15 at the Sofia at 7p), Johnny is going to tell a very vulnerable and difficult story about his mother. No spoilers, but lets just say it fits the theme: Cults, Crackpots and Swindlers.
you need to be there. And bring every one of your friends. They will thank you for it. Tickets are at inanutshellstorytelling.com
