Storytelling is not just entertainment: it’s a fundamental part of being human. Ales & Tales is a live storytelling open mic, akin to The Moth, but without the competitive aspect. Tellers take the mic to share personal stories, true-as-remembered, in six minutes or less with no notes. There are few rules: beyond the time limit and truth requirement, stories must follow the night’s theme, which is typically a one- to two-word prompt with LOTS of flexibility (like Dirt, Winter, Sunshine or Rigid).
Stories don’t have to be funny, but they can be. Stories should have an arc – a beginning, middle, and end – and perhaps a lesson snuck in there, too. Food and drinks, including alcohol, will be available for purchase; and the crowd is always friendly. Come relate to strangers, and turn them into pals!
Theme: Best laid plans
You planned and planned and planned, and things still went awry. But was it that bad, really? Did the plans set you on the path you ended up enjoying, even if they didn’t pan out the way you’d intended? There are a few adages to play with here: ‘man plans, god laughs’; and ‘life is what happens when you’re busy making other plans.’ Detail to us your best laid plans, and take us on the journey of where they took you.
This event takes place in the 4th floor Gallery and has a cash bar.
