Open to all, Full Circle Storytelling events revolve around a prompt and the idea: everyone has a story. Sign up to tell a true story inspired by the evening’s prompt or just come to enjoy the evening! (No experience necessary.) Co-hosted by Wandering Aesthetics, Jilly’s Music Room and The Akronist, this intimate evening of storytelling will conjure the spirit of community.

Stories range from heart wrenching to hysterical – and everywhere in-between!

Registration is encouraged, (especially for storytellers), but not required. To register or for more information, please visit www.watheatre.com/fullcircle, email info@watheatre.com or call 330.612.3090.

EVENT HASHTAG: #FullCircleStories

THE PROMPT: ‘MY FAVORITE MISTAKE’

‘“How could I be so stupid?”

When we fail, it can seem like the end of the world. We berate ourselves. We obsess over our mistakes. We replay (again and again) the way things should have gone. This is only compounded by all the wonderful things we see happening over Facebook and Instagram and Twitter for, seemingly, everybody we know. What we don’t see– if they were to remove the “Perfect Life” filter– our friends experience the same kind of insecurities. Join Wandering Aesthetics with emcee Noor Hindi (Poetry In Akron) as we celebrate failure by sharing our “Favorite Mistakes”.

Prompt inspired by submissions from: Katie Beck & Nici Romo

FULL CIRCLE STORYTELLING MISSION STATEMENT

Full Circle is a successful monthly storytelling event open to the community. Telling their own true tales, Akronites place themselves at the center of their own life journeys. We use the art of narrative to ignite understanding between diverse peoples, building bridges– not walls– within our community.
