Defying Gravity – A Storytelling Show
📅 Thursday, March 5, 2026
📍 Barrel O’ Fun
5 storytellers sharing true tales from their own lives. We defy gravity every morning when we get out of bed. When you’re sitting on the couch and your dog wants to go out for the forth time to bark at a squirrel, you are defying gravity. Gravity is intended to hold us down and it’s good to have your feet on the ground. It’s also good to know that you can run, walk, fly, soar. It’s true that you will eventually come back down, but in that moment you have defied gravity.
