Event description
THIS EVENT IS NOW SOLD OUT
A True, Personal Storytelling Night
for Women
22 June, 2021
7.30pm – 10.00pm
TICKETS ARE LIMITED AS THIS IS A SMALL VENUE
Women’s experiences are different, how we see the world, how we are treated in the world and how we make sense of the world are unique and diverse.
Women’s stories are not heard as loudly, as often, as seriously or as humourously as they could be.
Women need space and time to tell, to be heard, to listen and connect through sharing our experiences, through our crafted stories. We need to make sense of our lives in a way that brings peace and hope to the events that have shaped us, as we then in turn shape them into a story. We then give this as part gift part message to our audience and know ourselves in a deeper way.
This is an open opportunity for a handful of women to tell a 5 – 10 minute true story – no notes, it happened to you, and for the rest of us to listen. There is no obligation to tell a story, in fact listeners are needed just as much as tellers.
You can buy a meal beforehand and drinks at the bar then settle in, and let the stories begin. See the Story Wise Women webpage for more information, including Frequently Asked Questions.
Theme: Haunted
Ghostly visions, unexplained happenings, veiled worlds appearing and disappearing - tell us a story of the weird and wondrous, the frightening and fierce that haunted you then and haunts you still. Or perhaps it is a story of haunting guilt, memories unbidden, harm never forgiven, unrequited desire or unresolved regrets. Maybe your story is of intergenerational trauma: an ancestral story carried on DNA filaments through family lines and haunting the now. Whatever your ghosts, craft a story and maybe, just maybe together we can exorcise the past with love and learning.
Stories with no connection to the theme are welcome too!!
