The Campfireball: Reverse Storytelling
October 11, 2024 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
$15
The Campfireball is a ‘reverse-storytelling’ show about the audience. Instead of asking folks to sit and passively watch a storyteller, The Campfireball explores various ways of coaxing the people in the audience to share their stories with one another. At the intersection of intimacy and absurdity, this unique 90 minute immersive experience encourages people to surprise themselves, drop their guards, and, by the end, to have told a brand new larger, interwoven story of all of us in the room together.
Developed over two years at the master’s in Storytelling program at East Tennessee State University, The Campfireball has something to to connect with every kind of audience member. Participation is never mandatory, it’s just as much fun to sit back and watch the stories unfold as it is to share, after all, what is a story without someone to listen? No two events are alike, and none will ever be repeated.
October 11th • 7pm
Tickets $15
