Hey,
if you are going to be or want to be in the New York City area on June 13th I'm gonna be doing a special live show to close out the Tribeca audio festival me reading stories from the memory palace with animation and slides and music including reading a story that is in my audiobook that only exists in my audiobook that I will only perform once at this very special event and I will also be joined by two of my audiobooks readers the wonderful actresses Carrie Coon and Lily Taylor.
Couldn't be more excited about this and hope you will join me.
You can find a link to tickets at thememorypalace.us slash event.
