J. Rohr joins us for the May offering of Fresh Meat, a live workshop session for Chicago-area storytellers. He will be performing a run through of his one man show “I’m Not Batman”, a comedic exploration of growing up and failed heroism as a romantic burns out into a cynic — feedback is appreciated. Doors open at 8:00. Event begins at 8:15. Food and drink are available all evening. 

J. Rohr is a Chicago storyteller, who grew up in Skokie then lived in the city for too short a time before moving back to the suburbs.  His personal adventures have included near death experiences, run ins with the law, romance, stabbings, and things he’s legally advised not to mention.  He performs stories and poetry throughout the city, and his fiction has appeared in periodicals such as Ireland’s Dodging the Rain, Perihelion, and The Mad Scientist Journal.  He currently writes the blog Honesty is Not Contagious.
