This American Life host Ira Glass brings a night of storytelling in the style he pioneered on his hit radio show: funny stories with feelings.
His program is heard each week by over three million listeners and has won the highest honours in broadcasting, including three Emmys (for a TV adaptation), eight Peabody Awards, and the first Pulitzer Prize ever given to a radio show or podcast. For decades, it’s been one of the most popular podcasts in the world. Glass invented a way to tell radio stories that reshaped audio storytelling and has been widely imitated.
Don’t miss this special evening with Ira Glass at Werklund Centre bringing the spirit of This American Life to the stage. Whether you’re a longtime fan of the show or are discovering his work for the first time, you’re in for an evening of funny and moving stories about people who may as well be your neighbours, your friends, or you.
