Building community, one story at a time.
Wee-WaWs (mini-shows)
While the Charles River Museum of Industry remains the home for mainstage WaW shows with longer-format stories, mini-shows (or Wee-WaWs) at smaller venues aim to engage smaller groups of people with shorter stories. These mini-shows may have a combination of tellers from previous shows and new tellers and may offer opportunities for audience participation.
