Ordinary people share their private stories at Berkeley’s ‘TILT’

Most of the time, when you buy a theater ticket you know what you’re in for. Not so with “TILT: Stories on the Edge,” a production that relies on everyday people to step up and reveal their private reckonings. The stories might be funny, painful or poignant, but at the end of the night they’re all meant to be unforgettable.

Following a sold-out performance in L.A., “TILT” arrives in Berkeley on Feb. 12 at the Marsh Arts Center. Guiding the night’s action is host Aaron Samson, a playwright and Moth StorySLAM champion who’ll tell his own special story. The way it works is audience members send pitches to the organizers and, if selected, they get 5-7 minutes to do live storytelling on stage. (Those interested should send a three-sentence pitch by email to [email protected], or bring it up in person that night, describing a true, first-person story they are ready to publicly disclose.)

    “TILT” is a fundraiser for the Alex Manfull Fund, a nonprofit dedicated to fighting childhood neuroimmune disorders such as pediatric acute-onset neuropsychiatric syndrome (PANS). So if you want another reason to attend, there’s that, writes an organizer: “Not only will you be captivated by powerful stories of being ‘on the edge’ — of resilience, or frustration, discovery, joy, risks, burnout, or understanding, etc. — you will also be supporting a really important cause.”

    Details: Doors open 5 p.m. and show starts 6 p.m. on Feb. 12 at 2120 Allston Way, Berkeley; tickets are $30-$200 and available at givebutter.com/tilt-berkeley
