Faster Than the Speed of Life
Presenter: Alex Bernstein and Larry Johnson
When: Wed, Oct. 22, 7:00-9:00 pm

Open to Men and Women

Alex Bernstein and Larry Johnson will tell stories that drag the boy out of the man and put him back again. Faster than a speeding bullet and able to leap over tall buildings in several bounds, they will do about an hour of stories, with a chance to just talk at the end. Alex and Larry met, travelling opposite directions, during a sonic boom.

Alex, a Russian immigrant, delights in telling Russian folktales and stories of his adventures traveling the world. He has performed in Minnesota for over 15 years, including TWO CHAIRS TELLING at the Jungle Theatre, the Seward Cafe, Coffee Grounds, and many others.
Larry was a 2 year old immigrant from Mpls to Bloomington, before the developers mowed down the country his dad sought in 1948. He tells folktales of Bloomington with facts slightly exaggerated to protect the innocent. He has walked and told stories since the late 60s throughout the U.S. and in England, Germany, Sweden, Norway, and Ecuador; always slightly under the radar.

Past Sexual Abuse in Men's Lives
Presenter: Allan Anderson
When: Wed, Oct. 29, 7:00-9:00 pm

Do you have questions or concerns about past sexual abuse? Perhaps you know someone who has hinted or talked about this. Perhaps you have experiences in your own life you wonder about. Perhaps you didn't quite know what to say or felt uncomfortable with the subject. Experts on abuse feel confident that about 1 in 6 boys are abused sexually in childhood so clearly you are not alone with these concerns. While talking about abuse is difficult, keeping silent and uninformed is not part of the solution! Come be a part of something better.
