Learn to tell your own story and listen to others tell theirs. Join us
for an afternoon led by Norah Dooley of massmouth on September 28 at
4:00. This workshop on the timeless art of storytelling will combine
entertainment and learning to tell one's own story so others will
listen.
Our topic will be objects that have special meaning in our
lives. Bring your own object - an ordinary household item or a special
heirloom.
The workshop begins with a short concert of stories by previous
winners of massmouth story slams. Then all participants join in
one-on-one exercises designed to turn personal experiences into a
story and, if you wish, into a performance. Finally, names are drawn
at random for a story slam competition with everyone a winner.
Norah Dooley is "an entrancing storyteller" (Boston Globe),
teacher/coach and co-founder of massmouth and project director of
StoriesLive. She is also an author and has created spoken word CDs.
This program is supported by the Watertown Community Foundation and by
Judith Saryan.
