Greg Audel . . . Chapter1!

Houston Storyteller Greg Audel debuts his 1-man show that will take you with him on his visits from Death Row to the Oval Office to homeless programs he’s designed to his visits with legends from Presidents Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, George H. W. Bush, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush as well as Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Barbara Bush, Ella Fitzgerald, Ray Charles, Oprah, Nelson Mandela and hundreds more! Greg’s adventures began at 12-years old when he decided he needed a mentor. But, he didn’t know any good men. So, he called the White House . . . What followed was several years of meeting almost everyone he ever wanted to meet while exploring ways to raise money for Nkhotakota, a district in Malawi.

This show will be the culmination of the daydreams that 12-year-old kid had of sharing his wild stories while doing his best to make a difference to kids, most of whom he’ll never know. It will also answer why Bill Clinton told Greg while visiting in the Oval Office, “Presidents know 3 cool things come with this job: The White House, Air Force One and . . . YOU!” Read more
