Lestat Slipping Into Darkness ~ Stoops to Nuts @ May 8th

I’ve invited the vampire, Lestat de Lioncourt, to our "City Stories: Stoops to Nuts" storytelling show this coming Tuesday, May 8th @ Cornelia Street Café @ 6pm. He gave me a call after picking up his mail yesterday and seeing our show listed in this week’s Time Out magazine. He said:

"Pryor, you crazy, S.O.B., I'll be there."

My problem: getting Lestat there before sundown. I’ve arranged a full eclipse of the sun shortly before six, the moment the creature leaves his crypt he'll be wrapped in a black velvet “no peeking” blanket and pushed into his horse drawn carriage on fashionable 10th Street just west of Fifth.  When the carriage arrives at the Café, Lestat will be whisked downstairs into pitch darkness. 

I hope you can join us and if you do, bring along one of those circus lights you used to swing at the Old Garden when they turned the lights off. It will be dark inside the Cafe, but that’s when storytelling and song are at their best.

Our May artists are:  Randee Mia Berman, Meredith Meyer, Stephanie Parello, Thomas Pryor and Elizabeth Rowe.

Admission is $7 and that includes one free drink. Hope you can make it, it's gonna be a good one.
