# Event Details - **Event Name**: Never Tony, Please - **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 23 Sep, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Wed, 23 Sep, 2026 at 09:00 pm (-07:00) - **Event Description**: Anthony Poponi brings Never Tony Please to the stage in a hilarious, honest night of stand-up and storytelling about family, relationships,About this EventAnthony Poponi has spent more than two decades helping people and organizations navigate happiness, resilience, relationships, and the wonderfully messy business of being human.But the lessons he teaches professionally didn't come from having everything figured out. They came from family, relationships, career misadventures, questionable decisions, spectacular mistakes, and the occasional realization that something going terribly wrong can eventually become a really good story.In Never Tony Please, Anthony brings those stories to the stage.Drawing from his new humorous memoir, along with stories and material that have evolved through years of performing, Anthony blends stand-up comedy, storytelling, observational humor, and playful absurdity into a very personal look at the things that make us laugh, cringe, and occasionally wonder what the hell we were thinking.He's spent years helping people make better decisions. He also has extensive personal experience with the alternative.The result is a night about family, relationships, work, getting older, chasing success, and the wonderfully imperfect reality of being human. It's about the moments we wish we could take back, the decisions that seemed like a good idea at the time, and the mistakes that eventually become the stories we tell for years.If you enjoy the storytelling of Mike Birbiglia, the thoughtful humor of Neal Brennan, and comedy that is honest, relatable, and occasionally uncomfortable in all the right ways, you'll feel right at home.Come laugh. Come cringe. Come recognize a little of yourself.Because sometimes the best stories start with a decision you probably shouldn't have made. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/salem/never-tony-please/100001999328006889 - **Event Categories**: comedy, entertainment, storytelling, performances, art, fine-arts - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 21.05, max: 74.41, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Salem - **state**: OR - **country**: United States - **location**: Shades of Brew - **lat**: 44.9912015 - **long**: -122.983368 - **full address**: Shades of Brew, 4743 Lancaster Drive Northeast, Salem, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Never Tony, Please - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/8500fb2ee0c33f9c3b901e9fe4d7a212d54564a21c71c22f9d79861df2a70dce-rimg-w1200-h1200-dc080808-gmir.jpg?v=1788253226 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Never Tony, Please being held? - **A:** Never Tony, Please takes place on Wed, 23 Sep, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Wed, 23 Sep, 2026 at 09:00 pm at Shades of Brew, 4743 Lancaster Drive Northeast, Salem, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Never Tony, Please? - **A:** Never Tony, Please is organized by Focus on the 40. - **Q**: Who is this event for?

People are struggling, burned out, and directionless more so than ever before. We’re disengaged and looking for inspiration, deeper connection and a sense of purpose and this is challenging our workplaces in a time when we need to get the most out of our people - and have them still be happy! We’ve been led astray and are focused and seeking happiness by chasing the myths marketed to us. Our work is centered on the refocusing on the 40% that we control which includes hard parts of life.
