Daisey offers fresh riffs on real life - Arts & Culture - BostonHerald.com:

Put down that notebook. The new memoir is a monologue, and Mike Daisey is its rising star.

A 34-year-old Maine native and Brooklyn resident, Daisey is performing not one, not two, but three different monologues at the American Repertory Theatre’s Zero Arrow Theatre in Cambridge: "Invincible Summer," Wednesday night though April 29; "Monopoly!," May 1-5; and his new "Tongues Will Wag," May 8.

"I love that I can create a world onstage with nothing but me, a table, a chair and a glass of water," Daisey said. "On certain nights -- good nights -- it’s magic."
