About the Show
Confabulation, Montreal’s original true life storytelling series, kicks off our 16th season with another night of stories – true as we can tell them. We will be celebrating The Word bookstore’s 50th anniversary at the Centaur Theatre, in collaboration with The Word, DeStill and Maktaba.
Our theme is Bookmarked – stories of plot twists, strong characters, and tales that won’t let go. These are stories about the stories – a true tale that features a literary work as a key character or element. Like backpacking across Europe with a beat up copy of Les Miserables, riding a midlife crisis with Tolstoy by your side, or that piece of slam poetry that changed your life forever.
Stories, true as we can tell them
Confabulation is a live, true-life storytelling event. Each month, our guest storytellers tell their autobiographical tales around a theme, without notes, props, or gimmicks. The stories are funny, thoughtful, heart-wrenching, and above all honest.
Monthly at Centaur, Centre Phi, Mainline and other venues.
Producer and Host
We’re all in the same city, we’re all in the world together and we recognize in each other similarities and differences. And having that experience, having other people recognize and connect with you, that’s a really powerful thing.
