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.

WHAT TO EXPECT

PROGRAM: The program runs approximately 2 hours. The first hour features invited guest storytellers telling original, true, personal stories based on the theme, followed by a 5 minute break, and then the Open Mic portion of the evening begins. There are 10 slots available for sign-up in the open mic portion. Open Mic stories should be 5 minutes or less in duration.

TICKETS: Tickets for this performance are Pay-What-You-Will.

PARKING: There is nearby street or lot parking (here’s a link to Bethlehem parking options).  We recommend the South New St. Garage (324 S. New Street), which is a 5 minute walk to the venue.

ACCESSIBILITY INFORMATION: Godfrey Daniels is wheelchair accessible; however, please note that the restrooms are not. Touchstone strives to create an environment where all members of our community, of all abilities, feel welcome. Please contact (610) 867-1689 or via email at touchstone@touchstone.org in advance to request assistance.

[Image description: A female presenting figure stands on stage in an intimate performance venue. She has a mic in front of her and is turned to the side with her arm raised in a dramatic gesture. She wears black pants, a muted tie-dye long-sleeve shirt with bright purple trim, and has short silver hair. She has her right arm stretched up to the ceiling, palm open. Her gaze is fixed somewhere off-camera to the left of the frame, a smile on her face. Behind her is a wooden wall with a giant quilted tapestry on it. The tapestry is a dark purple with a multicolored music note and the words “GODFRE DANIE” on it – presumably the performer’s body is hiding the final “LS” at the end of “DANIELS.”] Photo by VillaNovak Creative.
