When your name is pulled you get 5 minutes to tell your personal true story. At the end of the evening everyone votes by text for their favorite story of the night. If that’s you, you get $50 and will join the other monthly winners in December for our GrandSlam at the Historic Mystic Theater. Sounds like fun, right?

Date: Friday May 17, 2024 Time: 7:00 pm Ticket link: https://roofing.brownpapertickets.com/ Description: ROOFING Presented by Sonoma Foundation for Behavioral Heath The Andrew Conti Workshop Andrew Conti, grew up in the Bay Area, a talented musician and artist, grappled with his own battles with mental health and addiction until his passing last year. His fellowship, his friends, and his family allowed him to be sober at the end of his life.  It is with the clarity of a sober mind that Andrew began to write the screenplay "Roofing". His unfinished work serves as a poignant reflection of the struggles of many, delving into themes of loneliness, entrapment, and the yearning for love and freedom. Although Andrew was unable to complete his work, we honor his legacy by presenting an adapted version of his play, exploring the universal human experiences magnified by addiction and mental health challenges and the search for self forgiveness, acceptance and a way to embrace the flawed and hopeful life that's possible to live on the road to recovery. Our adaptation not only tells the story of Seth, Lucy, Arthur, but also reflects the broader narrative of a sf/bay area community ensnared by addiction and searching for liberation. - […]
