Morning Debriefing 4/8/11

1) Series “House of Lies” that Ben Schwartz is in got picked up on Showtime!

3) The BBC recently visited NY and was marveled at their plethora of storytelling shows. Though the Moth started in NY, we’ve got plenty here in LA including This is Not Happening @ Hollywood Improv, Public School Stories at M Bar, Two Headed Beast at Stories Books & Cafe, and plenty more that keep popping up. Check it BBC.
