The Talent Show and Gift Swap Tonight at Littlefield

The Talent Show

I was more than a little shocked (and saddened) when I realized I completely missed the boat on this year’s This American Life Christmas Show, so tonight I’m going to make my best effort to get the TAL endorsed Talent Show featuring Ira Glass, Dave Hill, Lucy Wainwright Roche and many others at Littlefield.

The Talent Show has another show coming up—on December 29th at Littlefield in Gowanus, Brooklyn—featuring This American Life producers Ira Glass and Jane Feltes, and regular contributor Dave Hill.

Show theme: “The Talent Show Presents: Presents.” They’re trying something that seems like it could be kind of amazing: A massive regifting gift swap involving the entire audience. BRING AN UNWANTED GIFT TO THE SHOW to swap for something you want a little more.

$5. Doors open at 7, show starts at 8. Tickets. [ThisAmericanLife.org]

FYI, the show is officially sold out, but I’m guessing the weather might make for a few stray tickets at the door. I, of course, make no guarantees about this whatsoever, so proceed at your own risk folks.
