The Shortest Story

Confabulation MTL presents: The Shortest Story XVII

The Shortest Story: quick as we can tell them”

Join us for a whirlwind of true-life stories, quick as we can tell ’em!
We’ll be hosting a night of 2-minute stories, shared by up to 30 storytellers as part of Centaur’s WinterWorks festival!
 
We’re looking for storytellers who want to share a 2 minute autobiographical story exploring any theme. Stories are told without notes, props, or gimmicks.
 
Have an idea brewing?
Send your pitch to < montreal@confabulation.ca > summing up your story idea in a few sentences.

Confabulation MTL would like to acknowledge the historic and ongoing presence of the Kanien’kehá:ka Nation, the traditional custodians of this land. Tiohtià:ke/Montréal is historically known as a gathering place for people, traditions and stories — and we are fortunate to be here. We hope in the sharing and remembering of histories and stories, we can all do and be better.
