As a nonprofit we rely on proceeds from the shows to stay financially sustainable. If you love Odyssey as much as I know you do, please purchase a membership to our shows and help Odyssey reach it’s goal of financial stability.

Once upon a time kale was used as a colorful, frilly buffet garnish, then thrown away. Nobody ate it. Then, seemingly overnight, everyone started eating kale. Once upon a time Snoop Dog was an anti-establishment gangsta; now he hosts a TV game show and is BFFs with Martha Stewart. Once upon a time nerds were not cool; now geek is chic. Do you have a story about a reversal of fortune? Did you turn in your gangsta badge for a soccer-mom mini van. Or, did you once drive in reverse because you were in the wrong lane? We want to hear about it.”

August: Wasted – Roscoe Mutz
September: Spontaneous – Curator TBD – feel free to sign up
October: Shame – Heather Hughes/Tony Paniagua
November: Class – Miles Schneiderman
December: Look back on 2021

Now, Odyssey is getting ready for it’s birthday once again. And like with any “baby”, it takes a village to keep it going and in good health. We know everyone has a lot going on; life is still complicated despite the new year. Trust us, we are right there with you. We’re hoping that between all of us we can make 2021 a great year for Odyssey.

So, whether you are are a storyteller, a curator or one of our many beloved listeners, we thank you again and hope to see you soon.

Stay safe. Stay healthy. And, keep telling your stories!
