MAX STOSSEL LIVE: WORDS THAT MOVE To Play SoHo Playhouse Before Heading To The West Coast

After a successful, sold-out run this past August, Max Stossel will return to New York City with two more performance dates of Max Stossel Live: Words that Move. It will play the historic Cherry Lane Theatre (38 Commerce Street, NYC) Monday, December 12, 2018 and the SoHo Playhouse (15 Vandam Street, NYC) on Monday, January 28, 2019, then Max Stossel Live: Words that Move, will move to San Francisco on Monday, February 4, 2019 at the SF Playhouse (450 Post Street, San Fran).

This hour-long journey takes the audience through topics like heartbreak, consciousness, social media, gender equality, infinity, the political, emotional and spiritual state of our world, pornography and even how dogs probably (most certainly) talk. Impeccably crafted, Stossel says all the things we wish we all had the words to say.

Audiences have commented "Somehow Max manages to make the whole room feel like he's talking explicitly to each and every person individually, and his casual demeanor and witty humor make him the most lovable up and coming poet of our time." - Brooke Johnson, Google; "Max is a modern-day George Carlin, a philosopher with a comedic bent." Erika C., Etsy; "Max's poetry is raw, earnest, hilarious, and engrossing. Above all, he's trying to find truth, and he brings you with him" Erik Torenberg, Village Global; "Far from preachy or pedantic, Max disarms his audience by wrapping these truth-morsels in playful packaging. It's a pleasure to watch someone reveal their rawness with such apparent ease-- a paradox, to be sure. But that's the essence of Max's show-- a delicious contradiction that cajoles us to dance through life while leaving us transfixed in our seats. Words That Move indeed." - Ilana Gilovich, Sleep No More
