Confession Booth
What happens in Goodgod's basement stays in Goodgod's basement.
Overview
If you're ready to share a deep, dark, dirty secret that you've been harbouring your entire life, there's only one way to do it: on a stage, in front of a crowd. Well, that's the idea behind Confession Booth, anyway.
After three years of dishing the dirt at Giant Dwarf and World Bar, Sydney's most debauched storytelling night has found a permanent home at Goodgod Small Club, not to mention a big shot podcast on ABC First Run. Confession Booth sees writers, musos, actors, comedians and all-round creative types spill the beans on their most embarrassing, outrageous and top-secret moments — all facilitated by ever charming hosts A.H. Cayley and Matt Roden.
Check the Goodgod website or the Confession Booth Facebook page for the weekly lineup of brave, ready-to-confess humans. Previous confessors include Brendan Cowell, Tracey Spicer, Sarah Blasko, Osher Günsberg (Andrew G), Yumi Stynes, Benjamin Law, Nahji Chu, Rhys Muldoon, Wendy Zukerman, Michael Hing, Gen Fricker, Catcall, Rainbow Chan, Marcus Whale, Joyride, Levins, SPOD, Nick Coyle, Lewis Hobba, Nakkiah Lui, Oliver Mol, Annaliese Constable, Cameron James, Corey White and more.
But it's not just a passive sharefest. If you've got a story you're dying to share, you can divulge during the audience confession segment — dig deep enough and you might find yourself carrying home a prize (probably booze and a significant weight off your shoulders).
