It's one thing to have an interesting story. It's a whole other thing to know how to tell it. Kim Porter has perfected the art of putting others in her shoes. The Tempe-based writer and actor has won three L.A. Weekly Theater Awards, two Los Angeles Drama Critics Circle Awards, and one of New Times' very own Big Brain Awards for her work at downtown's Space 55 Theatre. When she's not working behind the scenes on larger scale projects — a book, a play, perhaps the next New York Times bestselling memoir — Porter has been found sharing stories about her past at events like The Most of Lit Lounge and Scottsdale Public Art's Water Logged. Though her stories are always a surprise, there's one outcome that can always be expected: A show featuring Kim Porter is primed to sell out.
