Annual Tellabration

About the Event

Storytellers of San Diego is hosting our own annual Tellabration! - A Worldwide Storytelling Celebration." It's an evening of synchronous storytelling around the world!

Free to the Public, Ages Twelve and Up.

Featuring a diverse lineup of talented performers, including Marilyn McPhie, Jim Dieckmann, Carol Jaksa, The Patchwork Players Story Theatre (Patti Christensen and James Nelson-Lucas), Emily Stamets, JT Moring, David Schmidt, and Aunt Li-Anne, Tellabration! promises an unforgettable afternoon of storytelling magic.

Inspired by William Blake, this year's theme, "In a Grain of Sand," invites us to discover a universe of meaning in the smallest details. Our talented storytellers will transport you to worlds both familiar and fantastical, exploring the depths of human experience with humor, heart, and wisdom.

Whether you're a seasoned storytelling enthusiast or new to the art form, this free event offers a unique opportunity to experience the transformative power of live storytelling. Join us as we celebrate the spoken word and the infinite worlds it creates.

Stories inspired by the theme span the gamut of folkloric, personal, and literary genres, with many styles represented, including stories with musical accompaniment. This is storytelling at its best—with no notes (The Moth style).

Embrace the magic of storytelling at Tellabration!
