“Book a babysitter early and grab dinner on Fayetteville Street before the show.”
What is Side Stories? This is a live stage show hosted by comedians Henry Zebrowski and Ed Larson, focusing on paranormal events, weird news, and true crime stories. This event is strictly for mature audiences, making it a great option for a parents' night out rather than a kid-friendly outing. Tickets range from $50.27 to $73.27. The Martin Marietta Center has paid parking lots nearby, but you can also look for street parking around Fayetteville Street, which is free on weekends. If you need a break from the usual routine, this show offers a funny, slightly chaotic evening in downtown Raleigh. You can grab dinner nearby at one of the spots on Salisbury Street before the doors open.
