Tonight Tales from the South returns to Arkansas Arts Center

Posted on by

talesfromsouthEach Tuesday, Tales from the South features stories about life in the South told by the people who experienced them.  After a sell-out engagement in July, tonight it returns to the Arkansas Arts Center.

The storytellers for this edition are Gary Pittman, Michael Hylden, and Randi Romo

Music is by Amy and Brad Williams and blues guitarist Mark Simpson.

“Tales From the South” is a radio show created and produced by Paula Martin Morell, who is also the show’s host. The show is taped live on Tuesday. The night is a cross between a house concert and a reading/show, with incredible food and great company. Tickets must be purchased before the show, as shows are usually standing-room only.

“Tales from the South” is a showcase of writers reading their own true stories. While the show itself is unrehearsed, the literary memoirs have been worked on for weeks leading up to the readings. Stories range from funny to touching, from everyday occurrences to life-altering tragedies.

Dinner is served from 5pm to 6:30pm, the show starts at 7pm.  Admission is $10.  Dinner can be purchased separately.

You MUST purchase your ticket before the show.

Previous episodes of “Tales from the South” air on KUAR Public Radio on Thursdays at 7pm.  This program will air on November 20.
