Inspired by Davide De Pierro’s newly released novel The Letters I Never Sent, his live show blends personal storytelling, humor, and audience conversation. Throughout the night, De Pierro will deliver a monologue and read selections from the book, followed by an open Q&A with the audience. Limited meet-and-greet opportunities will also be available for those who purchase in advance. Davide is a New Jersey native that has cultivated over 3M followers on TikTok and 2.7M followers on Instagram and has been earning millions of views online. Known for his commentary on relationships, finances, and those relatable moments that capture the human experience, Davide is excited to be expanding into a fresh medium. There are special Meet & Greet Tickets available for this event which offer a wonderful opportunity for fans to meet and interact with David De Pierro. Quantity is limited at each show. Shortly after the show, attendees with a M&G wristband will be allowed to meet Davide De Pierro and take a photo with him. Minors ok when accompanied by a parent or guardian.
