“Story Circle Live is for people with real stories: funny, moving, surprising, tense, messy, human. If you have lived through something worth sharing, we want to hear from you.
“Each storyteller steps into the focal point — the heart of the stage, where every word matters. Make them laugh. Make them cry. Make them gasp. Then the crowd decides who wins.”
Liam Rogers
Founder of Story Circle
