Everyone has a story to tell.The challenge is knowing how to tell it.
In this dynamic, multi-session workshop for adults, you’ll learn how to shape personal experiences into compelling stories—and share them in a way that truly connects with an audience.
What is storytelling?
Storytelling is the age-old art of sharing stories live—without reading from a page. It’s spontaneous, expressive, and often playful. A story might be carefully crafted or loosely improvised, grounded in truth or enhanced with a touch of theatrical flair.
Across cultures, storytelling has always been a way to entertain, teach, preserve history, and pass on meaning. If you’re curious about the style explored in this workshop, you might recognise it in performances by Mike Birbiglia or platforms like The Moth.

What to expect
This workshop is hands-on, interactive, and supportive. Over the course of the programme, you will:
Learn how to retell an existing story in your own voice
Discover and develop a personal story worth sharing
Identify the message at the heart of your narrative
Build confidence in telling stories aloud
There will be writing exercises, group activities, and playful storytelling games designed to help you grow step by step.
What this workshop is not
It’s not about reading written texts aloud
It’s not a therapy session—though we will thoughtfully explore personal experiences as creative material
What to bring
Just bring a notebook and pen—and an open mind.
You don’t need to arrive with a story; we’ll help you find one.
