An unforgettable live multimedia experience.

“Sweeping the nation with live performances of human-interest stories ... like an emotionally intellectual rock concert.”
—Playbill

Pop-Up Magazine is the acclaimed live magazine show, featuring original and unforgettable true stories, art, music, and performance from the world’s great and emerging storytellers and journalists, accompanied by illustration, animation, film, photography, and an original score performed onstage by our musical collaborators, Magik*Magik Orchestra. Imagine a comedy show, play, concert, podcast, and film—all wrapped into one night.

Pop-Up Magazine will embark on a themed tour this fall: Love Stories. First loves and blind dates, heartbreak and missed connections, life-long companionship and chosen family. What does love mean to you? Pop-Up Magazine: Love Stories will explore powerful, hilarious, and moving stories about love in different forms: marriage, friendship, self- love, redemption, longing, and so much more.

Contributors to Pop-Up Magazine: Love Stories include writer and actor Ryan O’Connell (author of I'm Special: And Other Lies We Tell Ourselves; Netflix’s Special), poet Sarah Kay (Project VOICE), features writer Allison P. Davis (New York Magazine), comedian Pamela Rae Schuller (What Makes Me Tic), radio producer Rachael Cusick (Radiolab), filmmaker Nadav Kurtz (Paraiso, a Sundance Film Festival selection); and essayists Ben and Rhonda Partain.
