We’ve been included the New York Times listing of things to do in Westchester this weekend! It was only a matter of time before the newspaper of record took notice. It’s going to be another sold out show this Saturday, Dec 14. The theme is the Big Chill. So get one of the few tickets left before you’re left out in the cold too!
Here are a few more stories to tide you over the next Pros(e) of Pie on December 14th. First up is a long form story on the theme Changes from one of our semi-regular experienced storyteller, John Georgette. Then we have an open mic’er sharing her relationship with an aging parent.
We’ll have more video of stories leading up to December’s edition. Get your tickets here.
It’s hard going weeks between Pros(e) of Pie evenings, ain’t it? Here’s video of two brave openmic’ers sharing their stories. One went on sign up for long story slots.

Many thanks to our great friends at the Journal-News. Megan McCaffrey wrote a great piece about the Halloween edition of Pros(e) of Pie. Special thanks to Tania Savayan for a really fun photo shoot in cemetery last week. Click image below for full coverage.
We wouldn’t dream of saying anything bad about pie. Apparently, others don’t feel the same. It seems there’s a Great Dessert Debate going on: what’s the more classic southern dessert, pie or cake?
And it’s making pie news : The New York Times investigates the deliberations within the halls of the The Southern Foodways Alliance Symposium.
Of course, that’s the South. Up here in the Northeast, we’re well into Autumn and deep into Halloween season. There can be no desserts more appropriate than pie. Just take your pick – apple pie, pumpkin pie… What’s not to love???
One of our October storytellers shared this picture. A snapshot of an absurd moment in 1986, forever frozen in time. We’re not sure what’s more frightening – the ghastly costumes or the 80s hair and makeup. The world will find out on October 23.
80s Halloween PoP
For Halloween, we’re bringing you a very special edition of Pros(e) of Pie from the Sleepy Hollow Cemetery! We’ve got a great line-up of local storytellers for this month’s theme – all things Halloween. Hear tales about superhero origins, life-changing pursuits and a costumed coming of age. Some of our storyteller will be in costumes so feel free to wear yours too. Weather permitting, the event will be held outdoors in the cemetery; inclement weather will move the event into the chapel.
Tickets are already selling for this special edition of Pros(e) of Pie, the Hudson Valley’s most popular storytelling series. Come find out what’s drawing audiences to month after month of sold-out shows. Trust us, it’s not just the pie!
