A “Blind Pig” was an unlicensed bar in 19th-century America, its name born from the trick: charge admission to see a curious attraction, while the real reason for the visit, a prohibited tipple, stayed just out of sight. A peephole in the door, one eye watching who’d knocked. Secrets kept close, decades before speakeasy was ever a word.
Blind Pig Stables carries that same instinct into the stalls after dark. Low light. Quiet corners. Intimate performances a few feet from where you’re standing. Find the door, and step inside.
Every month, people come to Launnie Monthly Storytelling to listen to stories told by other people from the audience. It can be anything: a historical tale, a near-death experience, a simple story about an incident, or a life-changing moment that will make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. A laugh-out-loud story, an observation about life, or something mythical. You never know what you’re going to get.
This September, Junction hosts a special “Best Of” edition of The Listening Project, the monthly storytelling night, distilled to its finest stories. Sit back, enjoy a drink, and listen to a wide range of stories, spanning from fantastical and romantic to gritty, heartbreaking, or humorous.
