Back Fence event one-week away

Thursday, October 16th, 2008

“Just can’t get enough,” the next Back Fence storytelling event is approaching fast. If you haven’t gotten your tickets yet, or if you don’t know what Back Fence is all about, check out their site.

When and Where?: 10/22 at Urban Grind East. Doors open at 7, the show starts at 8, and tickets are $7 in advance, $8 at the door.

What?
Back Fence is an evening with six people telling their true eight-minute stories based on the month’s theme. The stories must not have been performed publicly prior to their Back Fence PDX telling. We’re also a blog with a weekly story by a writer, blogger, or someone with an unusual story about the topic. Back Fence gives a polite nod to their kissin’ cousin in San Francisco, the Porchlight Storytelling Series.

Why?
Because the world thrives on stories, and because storytellers light the way so others can access their own stories. And, in the case of next week’s event, can anyone ever get enough?

Go to their site to learn more. Hope to see you there.
