Local Live(s): A Storytelling Event About Chain Reactions

A night of live storytelling and entertainment, bringing together investigative reporters and community members.

Hideout, 1354 W. Wabansia Ave., Chicago, IL 60642

In partnership with Back Pocket Media.

Join us for Local Live(s), a night of live storytelling and entertainment bringing together investigative reporters and community members.

ProPublica journalists who cover the Midwest will share the stories behind their published stories — and how the personal and professional intersect. Think of it as a live podcast all about reporting in the region we love.

The theme of our show is “Chain Reaction: Stories About Decisions That Lead to Surprising Outcomes and Unplanned Futures.”

The event will also feature live music from Julius Tucker and storytelling from stand-up comedian Chris Trani.

ProPublica reporters:

  • Anna Clark
  • Haru Coryne
  • Jessica Lussenhop
  • Steve Mills

All patrons are required to show proof of COVID-19 vaccination for entry. Patrons must also wear a mask at all times inside when not actively taking sips of their drinks. Purchase tickets here.

Back Pocket Media's Local Live(s) is sponsored by the Meta Journalism Project.
