Hey, champ! Thanks for checking out Telltale. We are a monthly curated storytelling event for people that like to get vulnerable and take no shit. We are keen on connection, laughter, heartbreak, poignant moments, and community building.
We are now in our 9th season!
At Telltale, you can expect about 8-10 performers—with a focus on queer/BIPOC folks— telling you a story, through a mix of comedy, stories, music, essays, and more. Your evening will likely include honesty, curse words, enthusiasm, dark humor, connection....and sometimes something unexpected. So please come and remind yourself that the world is bigger than we remembered and that you're never alone. We are specifically focused on stories from people that can get vulnerable but also take no shit, fierce folks that know how to fight the good fight but also like naps and staying home most nights.
This month, we are GOING CAMPING, because we are getting more and more ridiculous with these show themes. So yes. I've rented out a whole camp ground for the weekend, so it'll just be Telltale community folks, so it's going to be pretty special. $50 for one person, $75 for a pair!
On night one, we are going to have a legit show in the woods around a fire pit. On night two, it'll be an open mic, where anyone is welcome to share something. The rest of the time, you're welcome to just hang out, meet new folks, cook food, and enjoy yourselves!
Once it gets closer, attendees will get more detail about location—but it will be about an hour and a half outside Portland at a Hipcamp location. It has several nice outhouses, group firepits, produce boxes you can order, and enough space to spread out pretty nicely. You can pull up right to your spot though, so no walking necessary.
Also, we have no room for any oppressive garbage. Don't even try, pal.
I think that covers it. I'll see you there. I think you’re very cool and the event will be better with you there. This community is better with you being part of it. Let's go outside together.
