over A cuppa : open call for´stories of the inanimate´

We gather to share stories of the inanimate – to give voice to the voiceless other – inanimate objects which are so much a part of our lives, an extension of ourselves, reflecting what we are, what we want to be. They speaks to us, we  talk back – silently . They manipulates us in many ways we don´t perhaps realize. Who belongs to whom – who owns the inanimate, controls it ; or are we now become the other ?

The inanimate has its story, only in ways we tell them.

The November session of storytelling will be held at Cafe Toto on November 29, 2017, from 5 pm – 8 pm.

We look forward to your stories.

The guidelines are as follows

Stories can be in any languages. However the performance of the storytelling act should help to connect with everyone present, beyond the limitation of language comprehension.
