i can feel your breath.

The Arrow (created and chipped away at by Kurt Chiang & Lily Mooney) is a (hot) storytelling show(er) that subjects written true stories to spontaneous devilry revelry. 6 writer-performers are given a prompt (fun!); each writes an original personal essay (wow!); then all 6 join forces to unravel, rewrite & interweave those stories, making a newer, truer thing, all in front of a live audience (wait. what? “Why?”…good question, Lily! Thanks Kurt!)

running quarterly this year, THE ARROW is always doing something or other: THE ARROW DROPSed ANCHOR a few months ago in February, and before that last November THE ARROW QUITSed SMOKING. In a few short weeks, THE ARROW will CRACKS. And you can watch! it! HAPPEN!

(C’mon now. I’ve got two of these little cakes and I’m not going to eat them both. I see that hungry look in your eyes.)

(Oh now you know that’s devil talk.)
