Truth in Comedy, or TiC for short, is a storytelling, stand-up comedy, and art show where humanity is the muse. It’s a unique experience that’s raw and beautiful. Three individuals will tell a story from their life, aka their truth, where they are willing to be open, honest, and vulnerable. Afterward, a comedian will perform a set inspired by the story. At the end of the night, an artist will present three pieces they created, each inspired by one of the stories. It’s an emotional rollercoaster that you won’t stop talking about.
