LET’S GET MORTIFIED Wednesday, May 21, at Dynasty Typewriter. Mortified meets LACER! Mortified is a hilarious show where people read their most embarrassing, pathetic, and private teenage diary entries, love letters, and lyrics in front of total strangers. A show that’s equal parts comedic, cathartic, and voyeuristic, Mortified is the largest and longest-running project of its kind, featuring a cast of LA’s bravest souls, a live band, and hosted by Mortified’s Neil Katcher and LACER’s Will Seymour. Share the shame and support after-school programs in Los Angeles! TICKETS & INFO
