BUSted! True tales from LA’s Bus riders. Is a popular storytelling show that is making its way across Los Angeles at the speed of public transit. Scott Schultz is the founder and organizer of the show and he has produced editions of it all over town including inside Union Station.
Join us Friday night at 9:45pm for a special edition of BUSted! Featuring some of the best storytellers in Los Angeles. We think this will be an exciting night.
