Pierce McManus is a Washington, D.C. based storyteller. Pierce co-hosts and produces the very popular Perfect Liars Club, a monthly storytelling show with a twist. He has also had the pleasure of performing with The Moth, Story District, and Better Said Than Done. His humorous stories draw upon his experiences as the son of New York City police officer, a child of the suburbs of the 1970s, and someone who constantly finds himself in hard-to-believe situations.
What do you get the guy who has everything he needs for his 50th birthday? This, apparently. Enjoy! And go fish.
My senior prom was a very memorable night for all the wrong reasons. Check out my performance from Story District’s “Worst Date Ever” storytelling competition, recorded at the legendary Black Cat on February 11, 2020.
I had a lot of questions growing up. A LOT. Unfortunately, answers were very hard to come by at my childhood home -- especially when it came to this taboo topic.
I was honored to recently appear on stage at DC’s legendary Black Cat as part of Story District’s Man vs Nature show. Here’s a little story about a bad job, a pair of khakis, and the will to survive. Enjoy!
It was the first Wednesday of February, and Dupont Circle's legendary Bier Baron Tavern and DC Comedy Loft once again welcomed back Perfect Liars Club for a mid-week dose of rowdy revelry. The chill of winter and the previous evening's State of the Union address did little to deter another sold-out crowd from taking roost in every available seat. Four months had passed since DC's best and brightest caught a liar in the act? Would they return to their sleuthing ways tonight?
