In October 2007, I had the great pleasure of taking the train from NYC to Woodstock to interview the writer, Gail Godwin.

"They sent me a dollar store thing - dolphins on a surfboard stand - and I'm going to write a five minute piece about it to read with other writers who will write about their dollar store things. Sounds like fun?"

Featherproof's Dollar Store Tour at The Allways Lounge

July 7, 2009 from 8pm to 10pm
Stealing from the improv community's bag of tricks, The Dollar Store uses a "suggestion" for the pieces performed in the show. Each writer or comedian is given an item purchased at a local dollar store (mundane to insane) and a month to craft a story that involves the item as directly or obliquely as the performer wishes.With: Aaron Burch, Blake Butler, Zach Dodson, Amelia Gray, Mary Hamilton, Jac Jemc, Caroline PicardFeaturing: Pia Z. Ehrhardt, Ken Foster, Michael Patrick WelchSee More
