DISCOVER YOUR INNER STORYTELLER WORKSHOP

Did you know the Chicago area hosts 50 storytelling shows a month? Storytelling - aka true stories told live - is fun and open to everyone. In this workshop, Writing Coach + Teller Victoria Reeves will perform a Moth-style story and then show you how to write a true story about a memorable experience! No writing skills (or performance) necessary. 

Victoria Reeves is a Teaching Artist, Writer, Storyteller, and Nomad. After backpacking in 15 countries, she now gets inspiration traveling across the USA in her campervan FLOW.  Her funny and reflective stories explore potential, identity, and creativity. Her solo show, "Brassy + Intrepid: Fighting to Be Me" was selected for Lifeline Theater’s Fillet of Solo Festival. Victoria produced Soul Stories Live and has performed at The Moth, Story Lab, This Much is True, First Person Live and the Evanston Storytelling Festival. From personal narrative to live storytelling, she offers private coaching and virtual Story Craft classes at www.coachvictoriareeves.com.
