WBEZ Presents: Mortified Live – Valentine’s Day Edition

WBEZ proudly presents Mortified Live: Love Hurts – Valentine’s Day Edition. Join us for a night of humorous storytelling from everyday people in Chicago. We’ve all experienced some embarrassment in our lifetime. Come out and commiserate over some cold beverages at the historic Athenaeum Center.

This February, we’ll celebrate the pinnacle of humiliating holidays, Valentine’s Day. Witness “personal redemption through public humiliation” in a refreshing show that finds people reading aloud their most embarrassing, pathetic, and private teenage diary entries, poems, love letters, lyrics, and locker notes in front of total strangers. A show that’s equal parts comedic, cathartic and voyeuristic, Mortified is the largest and longest running project of its kind, featuring a cast of Chicago’s bravest souls and the Mortified Band performing some of your favorite guilty pleasures! Share the shame!
