Entrée for Storytelling

An experience for the curious. No experience is needed — it’s an entrée, after all. Small bites, big flavour.

Stories are one of the main ways we communicate meaning to others. However, most of the time, we don’t have the luxury of planning our stories in advance. Our stories are messy, fragmented, and often told to a small audience around a watercooler. Can we learn to tell stories in a way that honours their too-human messiness?

This session will use simple, playful games to explore what it’s like to tell more human stories. It’s full body, big grin learning. Afterwards, you’ll have an opportunity to reflect on and share what you’ve learned, and what you might want to take back with you to daily life.

Please aim to arrive ten minutes early and wear clothing you feel comfortable moving around in, and a notepad and pen for reflections. Free parking is available on-site, or on streets adjacent to the building.

When you sign up, we’ll add you to our newsletter. We email weekly-ish, with our Only the Human newsletter focused on our events and courses, and our Perspective Shift newsletter focused on improvisation at work. You can unsubscribe or change your preferences at any time.

Profits from this event go to our charitable partner, the Perth Improvised Theatre Society.
