THE LUSH is a monthly performance series that celebrates the pleasure of telling and hearing great stories in an intimate, public forum.
Hosted by novelist Amy Sohn and filmmaker Joe Maggio, THE LUSH showcases established writers and performers who are refining works-in-progress in front of a live audience, but also welcomes new storytellers from a diverse range of backgrounds.
Although no limitations are placed on style or content, THE LUSH has emerged out of the stand-up comedy space and stories that lean towards the humorous or absurd are encouraged.
The format is as follows. Guests arrive, get settled and procure a quality cocktail, followed by stories and a musical interlude. Drinks and lively conversation close out each evening.
In a world where human interactions are ever more virtual and our art and entertainment (film, TV, books, music, and periodicals) are increasingly determined by AI and its attending algorithms, THE LUSH is a return to the analog joys and authenticity of direct, live, human engagement.
