How to get involved
If you would like to perform, please email
obscuratheatre@outlook.com with a brief outline of your story by 15th July 2023. You are invited to send your outline in whatever format best works for you, but we ask that stories are no more than ten minutes long. You can read the story out loud, or tell it from memory - it’s completely up to you how you share your tale! There are only eight storytelling slots available, allocated on a first come first served basis.
