Join us at the Tucson J for One Community, Many Stories—an evening that blends creative writing, storytelling, and performance into one powerful communal experience.
Under the guidance of Aaron Henne, artistic director of theatre dybbuk, you’ll take part in a writing workshop open to all levels, where you’ll craft personal essays or stories rooted in your own lived experience. These pieces will then be curated and performed in a staged reading by Aaron and his ensemble of actors.
Between the workshop and the live performance, enjoy some immersive engagement: sink your teeth into Dracula-inspired snacks and drinks, connect fellow community members, and enjoy a talk by Dr. Joela Jacobs on Jewish icon Franz Kafka—another scholar of the monstrous and the “other.” Whether you mingle, reflect, or just relax, it’s a chance to deepen your engagement with the evening and with one another. This October gathering is playful, powerful, and rooted in the belief that every voice deserves to be heard—even in the shadows.
The workshop is open to participants ages 14 and up. Minors must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. On-site childcare will be available—please email [email protected] if you plan to use this service.
