After selling out the last two years, we're back. This time for two unforgettable nights.

Join GBH for our annual Valentine’s Day Soirée featuring craft cocktails, local treats, and LIVE storytelling on the set of Stories from the Stage. Whether you come with a date, a group of friends, or on your own, this is a night designed to celebrate love in all its forms: tender, complicated, funny, and unforgettable.

Choose the night that fits your vibe—or make it a full weekend V-Day celebration.


🩷 INCLUDED WITH YOUR EVENING...

• Complimentary artisan cocktails.
• Sweet and savory treats from local vendors.
• A seat on the set of Stories from the Stage.
• LIVE, intimate storytelling in GBH’s Calderwood Studio.

🩷 BRING YOUR VALENTINE...OR DON'T
This soirée is for everyone (21+ years of age):

Stories from the Stage invites you to our Brighton studio for an evening inspired by gift giving! Some gifts come wrapped joyfully in ribbon - exactly what you need! While others arrive packaged with disappointment, anger, or shock - and nothing you wanted! Whether the perfect or the worst present – come listen to true, empowering stories about the gifts that changed, challenged, or caught individuals completely off-guard. You will find yourself saying, “Wow—what a gift!”


At Stories from the Stage, produced by GBH WORLD, ordinary people share extraordinary experiences that you will not soon forget. In each taping, we get up-close and personal with storytellers about what inspires them and the craft of storytelling. Join us!

Stories from the Stage invites you to our Brighton studio for an evening inspired by the spooky season. You know that feeling — a noise you can’t explain, your heart starts to race, your stomach drops, and suddenly you’re covered in goosebumps. Some of these stories involve ghosts… others are simply strange, eerie, or delightfully unsettling — but all of them are true. Come be part of our live audience. You’ll laugh, gasp, and hear stories that just might make you wonder.

Stories from the Stage warmly invites you to our home (studio) for a night of storytelling related to the concept of “home.” It can be a safe haven — or something you had to escape; a person, a location, or a dream; a place you swore you'd never return to; or a sanctuary you created. Come listen to true stories of home in all its beauty, heartbreak, complexity, and contradiction as you sit on set at Stories from the Stage.
