THEME ️

*********

Each show has its own unique theme and this month our theme is Forbidden Fruit 

 Stories of temptation curiosity and the lure of the off-limits. Eating the snack when you know you shouldn’t sneaking into a restricted area or meeting up with the person you said you wouldn’t. Stories of everything not allowed and verboten. Affairs secret cigarettes and cheat meals. Stealing seduction and giving into indulgence. Crossing a border without a visa jumping a fence into a festival or looking at someone’s phone without permission… The thrill of rule-breaking secret indulgences and desires kept hidden. Stories of defiance daring misadventure and fallout that resulted… Have you got a story about forbidden fruit?

Then come tell us on January 11th at the Front Room Weston-super-Mare.
