Each 7 STORIES night has a theme and storytellers sign up and are selected in advance. Real stories are spellbinding and raw. They are not a theatrical performance, but true life stories from your friends, acquaintances, or someone you have never met. These stories are told from the heart. Each program is introduced by our host for the evening, with a short bio of each storyteller.
WE NEED YOU Please consider sharing your true story…In the spirit of community and friendship. We will coach/help you as much as you would like. To sign up fill out the form online or email us at 7stories@burienculturehub.org.
Parents should use discretion when deciding whether to include children. Not all stories will be appropriate for young listeners.
