Don’t know why (*gestures around at all this*), but seems like right about now might be a good time to share some salubrious stories.Tell us about a time you were struggling when someone or something showed up, becoming your unexpected oasis. Perhaps you found solace whilst binge watching The X-Files to get through a year one week while trapped in a snowstorm in Boston. Did a new four-legged creature show up on your doorstep just in time after a Springer-worthy break-up? We wanna hear all about what, or who, saved the day, saved your soul, or at least saved dinner.
Nothing makes us feel better than coming down to Manuel’s Tavern on the second Tuesdays of the month for a little story-based TLC (and some delicious nosh). Hope you storytellers and story listeners will be our knight in shining armor by joining us there—Tuesday, February 11 at 7p.
Notes for a rejuvenating storytelling experience…
*no notes
*no political rants
*no stand-up comedy
This is OG storytelling, like our ancestors used to do around the fire.
STORYTELLING TIPS: It’s often said that stories must have a beginning, middle, and an end. A different way to think about it is a story is not a story unless some change has occurred. (What's changed in me, the circumstances, or environment?) If nothing changes, then it might just be an anecdote. Find the change in your story. As such, every story you tell brings change into the world.
FREE STORY COACHING: We tend to be at Manuel’s by 6p on the night of the show. If you’d like a little coaching as you prepare to get up on that mic, please feel free to arrive in the hour before to talk through your story’s points for some potential ideas or help with shaping it.
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED: We always need volunteers to make our events run like clockwork. Roles include:
*greet people at the door & encourage sign-ups
*keep up the tradition with timing stories
*be our personal paparazzi! (take photos)
Let us know if you’d like to volunteer!
