Theater: Daredevils and Yellow-Bellies The idea behind SpeakEasyDC is that everyone has a story to tell, some folks just need a little encouragement. Under the leadership of Director Amy Saidman, SpeakEasyDC has turned into a place where the social worker who lives down the hall from you learned to hold an entire audience captive with a story about a hilariously haphazard Valentine's date, but also where some of D.C.'s best comedic performers have honed their craft. This week's show is called "Daredevils & Yellow-Bellies: Stories about courage and cowardice." August 9 at Town Danceboutique 2009 8th St, NW. Phone: 240.888.9751. Web: speakeasydc.com
