Sit 'n Spin

A regular event at the Hudson Theater’s Comedy Central Stage, Sit ’n Spin is a storytelling show slash concert, where writers and performers read essays (funny, dirty, sad—you name it) to live music. It’s mostly creative folks in the entertainment biz who perform here, and the themes follow suit. If you’re “in the industry,” you’ll probably empathize with the tales of casting couches and $10 residual checks; those who aren’t keyed into the showbiz scene might feel a little left out, although the show is often a riot regardless.
