We are excited to announce the NOVEMBER Back Fence PDX storytelling extravaganza! With lovely people telling true tales based on the theme CATCH ME IF YOU CAN.
Joining us this time around are, from New York, former Blue Man Group member, JOHN GRADY, from Seattle, JENNIFER JASPER —who’s been to every Old Spaghetti Factory in the US, and is also a longtime performer…The Stranger has this to say about her, “she astounds with her versatility…easy demeanor…and bulls-eye comic timing.”, from PORTLAND…avid cyclist and global meetings and events planner for NIKE, RON ROLEY, the local boy who created I LOVE TELEVISION, WM. STEVEN HUMPHREY, and outdoorsy wild woman who once was a stand-in hula dancer on Wheel of Fortune, RENEE JENKINSON. One more delightful storyteller will be announced SOON.
For Catch Me if You Can stories think… RVs, naked people and squirrels, thievery, Olympic dreams coming true, or not?, egotistical dating fiascos, and pranks gone awry.

I’m a long time listener of This American Life and storytelling podcasts and I think it would be cool to see a storytelling show live!

I would love to see a live storytelling event! I would really liek to go to this.
i want to be front row at back fence. that is a sweet show.
Sounds like fun!
love me some storytelling of the experiential sort. this in particular sounds amazeballs!
Reasons why I should win
1. I have a great laugh. Everyone at the show will hear it :-) 2.I am currently on a diet so will NOT be eating any cupcakes, so more for you.
3. I come from strong hilly billy stock and miss all the ole timey stories about squirrels and rv’s and such.
Spielberg can do no wrong.
Sounds like a great way to spend the evening – especially since I now have Wednesday nights off!
I would love to see this performance; I’ve heard fantastic things!
I’ve been enjoying video recaps of these performances and would love to see the real deal!
Done and done. You know where I will be.
I want to attend this because winning stuff is cool please just give me free shit
Cupcakes and storytelling!!
I wouldn’t run away from free tickets.
I would really like to attend this event because I am new to Portland and find myself starting to be intimidated by the rain. I really want to love it here and I need a little help. I’m also poor.
Oh I could tell a few ‘catch me if you can’ stories myself. ;o)
Any event that includes both “naked people and squirrels” piques my interest. WIN!
I live for stories! There is nothing better than unique personal experiences that can make you laugh or cry – or both! No silverscreen will ever compare to genuine life and all of its complex hilarities. I would be overjoyed to get those tickets.
down the pipeline fell
people who do stories well
I hope the tix come in
because then if I win
I’ll have my own story to tell!
you had me at squirrel.
Big fan! This would make for an awesome date night!
I think this is what could complete my education.
What a fun night! There are stories I’d never share, but I always love to hear what others did :)
This would be great … there are stories I’d never tell, but I’d love to hear what others have done :) and cupcakes too!!
Wednesday is my hardest day of the work week and I want to be able to laugh that night!
I’ve run out of witty things to say in order to win tickets, help me out with some inspiration..
Catch ME only if you give me tickets!
Sounds very interesting!
Love Back Fence!
My girlfriend has been looking forward to this event for awhile, and it would help me afford the evening better if I could get free tix.
I am a really good audience member. I’m quiet unless I’m supposed to be laughing.
I want to win! I am doing no spend november and how better to accomplish this then getting free tickets?! Exactly.
Okay, so Wednesday is date night with my wife and my little dog ate the thirty dollars I saved to buy tickets. Please help! Thank you.
I love Back Fence PDX events! And cupcakes. But mostly Back Fence.
Just heard this on opb
new mom who desperately needs a night out :)
This sounds like a hoot, I would love to make it a date
My Friends from out of town are coming to visit and want to show them a good time. They are cheap so probably won’t go unless we win some tickets :)
So I am quitting my job due to horrible working conditions and what a better way to celebrate! This will be a fantastic way to laugh off some interesting months, a time where I could have given my story!
I love story telling – what a great art form to connect, share emotion and inspire!
Is this similar to the moth? Would love to go
I just moved to Portland from NC and want to take advantage of all the cool happenings in my new city.
This sounds good enough that I would cross the river for it!
I want to win because my friend was able to get a ticket, but by the time I went to get mine it was sold out. :(
