EVENTS

We are the stories we tell.

An evening of personal stories hosted by Touchstone Ensemble Member (and professional storyteller) Mary Wright. Like the long-running New York City (and beyond) spoken-word event, “The Moth”, this live storytelling performance features local professionals and an open-mic portion. Story Cabaret celebrates life the way we live it — in all of its complexity — and encourages us to speak from our hearts and to listen to each other.

The theme for this evening is “Better Together,” but what does that mean to you? From peanut-butter and jelly, you and your best friend, the holidays, or our community, lots of things are better together. What’s your story? Stories must be true, personal, and open-mic stories are limited to 5 minutes. Come join the fun for a relaxed, intimate evening of story-sharing that brings us together in this place we call home.

She wears black pants, a muted tie-dye long sleeve shirt, and has short silver hair. She has her left arm stretched up to the ceiling, her gaze following it up. In her other hand she holds a sign that says “FREE HUGS” in black lettering on white cardboard. Behind her is a wall wooden wall with some decor on it. On the far left side of the stage, blurry in the background is a female presenting ASL interpreter, who is in the middle of signing the story being told.]
