Do you love stories? If so, this workshop is for you!  

In the first of three interconnected storytelling workshops, participants will create a short piece of writing that is designed to be read aloud or performed in front of an audience.  

Writers of all levels of experience are most welcome to attend. Workshop participants will be encouraged to share their draft with the group, but this is not mandatory.  

For the workshop you will need to bring:  

  • A pen and note book or digital equivalent  
  • A water bottle  
  • Courage, curiosity, decent observation skills and a sense of humour 

This is the first workshop in a series of three interconnected storytelling workshops. Come to one or come to them all!

For ages 18+
