Out/Spoken: A 15th Anniversary World Pride Celebration
May 24 @ 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm
$39.50
Washington, DC hosts World Pride in 2025! We are excited to celebrate the 15th anniversary of Story District’s Out/Spoken during this historic occasion. For 15 years, Story District has been bringing LGBTQ+ stories to the stage: real, personal, and unforgettable. This year, as World Pride 2025 comes to DC, we’re making it even bigger. Produced by Story District and hosted by comedian and storyteller Anthony Oakes, eight storytellers will share moments that shaped them, like falling in love and facing their fears. Some stories will make you laugh, others will make you think, but every one of them will highlight the power of a well-told story. Whether you’ve been part of Out/Spoken from the start or you’re coming for the first time, this is a night to celebrate, reflect, and be in community. Join us at Howard Theatre on May 24 for an evening of stories that bring us together. Tickets: https://www.storydistrict.org/tickets
