ABOUT DINING ROOM TALES with JOHN BOLTON
Dining Room Tales invites you to the table of venerable Australian theatre arist John Bolton. John has a decades-long interest in the artistic uses of people's lives. He has made theatre shows and run creative workshops where participants explore the map of their life to create meaning and find new threads of reasonance by listening to others' experience. John's table will be set with papers and pencils, every bit as important as plates and knives. You will be invited to draw, to write, and to reflect. There will be no pressure to share, but you will have the opportunity to offer an important tale or an inconsequential detail to the soup.
Neither skilled drawing nor fine writing are expected, nor is expert storytelling; only your unique style and content. Enthusiam and companionship are eagerly anticipated. Life is story. We, the storytellers. Places strictly limited for this most intimate of meals.
