52 Stories – David Morris

52 Stories – David Morris

52 Stories

52 Stories is a storytelling show that takes place inside the memory palace of improviser Dave Morris. First, watch him memorize a shuffled deck of cards. Then, while reciting the order, he’ll teach you how to do it. All while telling heartwarming and heartbreaking stories of family, friends, love, loss, and of course, memory. A brand new show from Dave Morris.

What are the things you remember? What are the things you never want to forget?
