7DS The Absolute Worst Show: WORST. LOVE STORY. EVER.
It's audience vs. performers as host Meg Ferrill and 7 Deadly Sins present a collection of Portland's top comedians, writers, artists, radio personalities, and other assorted raconteurs to celebrate the Valentine's Day Season by telling us their Worst Love Story Ever.
But anyone in the audience can offer up the deets on their own worst ever love story. And that story can be about any kind of love that went sideways - romantic love, fraternal love, familial love. A pet that never loved you back. The time you finally met your idol and they were terrible. That pair of $500 shoes that caught your eye in a window but never lived up to your dreams. Basically, anything you adored that flamed out, imploded, or was simply never fated to be.
Whoever everyone decides had the best Worst Love Story Ever experience - be it performer or audience member - will have a chance to win one of the absolute best or absolute worst prizes ever awarded on stage.
We'll also give away prizes for the best answer to our Absolute Worst Question Of The Night, the evening's Best Audience Member, and someone willing sing a verse of their choice for the Worst Love Song Ever. Plus other prizes that we'll probably just make up as we go!
7 Deadly Sins produces several regular storytelling shows including 7DS: Pants On Fire! and Daria's Confessional Cabaret at McMenamins White Eagle, and 7 Deadly Sins: MainStage and 7 Deadly Sins: Saturnalia! at the Mission Theater.
