Intrepid Theatre Club (Fisgard at Blanshard).   Friday, April 15, 7:30 pm to 9:30   Stories from Around the World and Close to Home. Our kick-off event, World Storytelling Day was such a hit, we had to turn people away at the door. Don't miss the rest of the series!

Storynorth is the 2011 annual conference of the Storytellers of Canada-Raconteurs du Canada It will be held 26-29 May in Yellowknife, NWT. The First Telling:  North /South/East/West   - Thursday May 26   9:00 – 10:00pm As an opening session, the FirstTelling will take place as part of the Opening Reception. Attending Tellers are all eligible for this opening set as upon registering they will be asked to designate themselves from one of the four directions in relation to their northern setting.  Example  – Alberta is due south and everything east of that is East and everything west of that is West. (it will make for some new Canadian alliances.)   Their names will then be placed in a direction box and then drawn from the box t the beginning of the reception.  These drawn tellers are then asked to bring us an opening story celebrating their direction.
