StoryTelling: A Kink in the Tale

A Kink in the Tale - Adult Storytelling

Presented by the FunHaus Factory in Gosford.

A Kink in the Tale embraces diverse, sex-positive, and inclusive stories told live on stage.

Join us Thursday 2nd of May for ‘A Kink in The Tale’: Live Storytelling for Grownups. We have a star studded lineup this month, with Duncan Fellows (The Let Down, Deadloch), and award-winning novelist Peter Polites returning to the kink stage. The coast’s own master storyteller and educator, Adrienne Ferreira (Bravewords & Bravewords Live) also joins us this month, alongside your ever faithful host,  Donné Restom.

This event is open to all who appreciate a good bedtime story with a twist. Get ready to laugh, gasp, blush and cry all at the same time. And remember, respect, consent, non-judgment and an open heart will make you a better lover - and the best kind of listener.

Make sure to book your tickets early this month, because this month’s 'A Kink in the Tale' will sell quickly!

Attention Community Storytellers!

We are looking for naughty and new storytellers. True tales or pure fantasy, we want to hear them all. If you have something you’d like to share, let us know via this form.

DUNCAN FELLOWS

Duncan is an actor living on Darkinjung land here on the coast. He has worked in Australian TV, theatre and voice over for the last 20 years (and then some) with credits that include Deadloch, The Letdown, We Interrupt This Broadcast, The Messenger, At Home with Julia, Laid, Comedy Inc, Life Support, All Saints and Home and Away. He has told stories here on the Coast at Bravewords Live and Words on the Waves festival’s edition of Storytime.

YOUR HOST: DONNé RESTOM

Long time lover of eroticism, irreverence, and saying out loud the things that make you blush. Donné was the sex advice columnist for Ralf magazine's horny teens in her twenties. Also, she is the sex writer for the confused and exhausted mums of Kidspot in her thirties. She is the host of Words on the Waves' 'Late Night Lit', and her erotic blueprint is The Shapeshifter: Loves all the sex, all time, all the ways, with all the people. And yes, she has the stories to prove it.
