Rewrite your Parents: Storytelling Workshop

David Labi

Thurs 1st Sept / Workshop / 7-9.00PM

Professional storyteller and facilitator David Labi relays the story of his late father, a Holocaust Survivor who brought trauma and wonder to those around him during a rollercoaster life. With this as a trigger, participants are guided to reflect on internal dynamics with their parents, and how fresh storytelling approaches can enable healthier relationships with themselves and others. All activities are opt-in and participants can be sure of an intimate and interactive space. This workshop includes short excerpts from David’s tragicomic one-man show Pieces of a Man.
