7DS: Pants On Fire Double Header
Friday, Sept. 19th @ The White Eagle
Join us as we host Portland’s wildest and most interactive comedy and storytelling entertainment event with Pants On Fire! at the historic White Eagle Hotel & Saloon.
As always, you’ll hear eight of the Northwest’s premier storytellers, comedians, artists, writers, celebrities & musicians telling some of the most outrageous, hard-to-believe, 100% true stories you've ever heard — except that one of our storytellers will be lying to your face, telling a complete whopper that never happened.
And as always, if you can guess which of our storytellers is the liar, you could win an overnight stay at the Edgefield Winery on us. Or you can try to win the Bag O’ Somewhat Valuable Prizes with our Two Truths & A Lie Audience Cage Match!
But this time, you have two Pants On Fire! shows to choose from.
THE FAMILY/FRIENDLY SHOW!
Our early show, Pants On Fire: Family/Friendly, will be all ages, featuring eight of the most amazing, hard-to-believe stories you’ll ever hear — one of them, of course, being entirely made up. It will be a great early-evening affair, and one of the first shows we’ve ever done where young adults can join in the fun. (Please note that although the show is all-ages, many stories will likely be more PG-13 than G; as such it is recommended for young adults and adults.)
Featuring new (mostly) true stories from literal rock star and certified-gold-selling Animotion head-man Bill Wadhams, standup comic and producer Star Dell’era, Moth Radio Hour alumni and ROUGH DRAFT host Kahlie Towle, fellow Moth Radio Hour alum and one-time celebrity-dog owner Scott Sanders, Moth Grand Slam winner and Best of RISK!-winning Samira Sahebi, 7DS: MainStage and previous Pants On Fire winner Terri Knight, storytelling newbie Larry Johnson, and more!
6:00 PM at the White Eagle
THE FILTHY/FREAKY SHOW!
Our late show, Pants On Fire: Filthy/Freaky, will be 21 and over only, and will feature eight incredibly sinful, decidedly not-safe-for-work stories that will be just as amazing and hard-to-believe as the ones from the early show.
Featuring new (mostly) true stories from writer, filmmaker, and Tiniest Party host Travis Abels, host of Porch Hang Radio Hour and Willamette Week’s Best Comedian 2025 Finalist Ash Allen, actor, director, and producer of Story Pirates Bradford Jordan, real estate agent and 7DS Producer Emeritus Alina Aliyar, PDX couples counselor and Pants On Fire favorite Jamie Berkowitz, private detective, activist, and creator-host of ROAR: Fierce Female Storytelling Erika Worth, award-winning singer-songwriter and Renegade Saints alum John Shipe, writer, designer, and 7DS Newbie Chris Sullivan, and more!
9:00 PM at the White Eagle
So pick a show, grab your tix, and come out to hear a night of the best stories you’ll ever not believe. It’s going to be a blast.
It’s an open-mic audience vs. three curated performers as host Meg Ferrill and 7 Deadly Sins present a collection of Portland’s top comedians, writers, artists, radio personalities, and other assorted raconteurs ramp up the Halloween spirit and tell the their own absolute true worst, best or weirdest scary stories alongside people form the audience — maybe even you.
And yours can be anything you’ve experienced that’s scary. Maybe it’s a ghost story! Or maybe it’s a story about when you faced your greatest fear. Or the first time you ever asked someone out on a date. Or went skydiving. Or started to wonder if the hitchhiker you’d just picked up was a serial killer. Or maybe it’s about a time when you absolutely scared the pasts off of someone else.
Whoever everyone decides had the worst, best, or weirdest scary story — be it performer or audience member — will have a chance to win one of the absolute best or absolute worst prizes ever awarded on stage.
We’ll also give away prizes for the best answer to our Absolute Worst Question Of The Night, the evening’s Best Audience Member, and whoever comes in the best or weirdest costume. Plus other prizes that we’ll probably just make up as we go!
Also, we may ask everyone to howl at the moon. Or we may not. (We’ll see.)
