John McDonagh and Al Gonzales present "From the BQE to QED," every second Thursday of the month, starting on January 11th from 7:30 - 9:00 p.m. New York storytellers will tell stories about New York in the home of New York storytelling - QED in Astoria, Queens. Hear fascinating stories from the people who keep NYC running, from construction workers, cabbies, cops and fireman to community activists, and anyone with an interesting story to tell. Every month will also feature a storyteller from the Fortune Society, giving a unique perspective of the ups and downs of life in NYC. If you want to laugh, cry and everything in between, come to Astoria for tales from NYC and enjoy a drink or two while you're there.
