Tenx9 is…

Tenx9 is a storytelling night: nine people have ten minutes each to tell a real story from their lives.
It started in Belfast, and you can read our story about how we came to be here.

Our local Tenx9 happens on the first Monday of the month at The Bedford Pub, in Balham.

If you have a story you’d like to share, let us know – drop us an email tenx9balham@gmail.com, send us a tweet @tenx9balham, or leave us a message on Facebook.

We can’t wait to see, and hear some of you, at one of our next Tenx9 events, listed below.

See you soon!

School

September comes and instinctively it’s back to school time, even if you left school years ago. School – the best days of your life?
Boot camp for the little?

We’re looking for stories of mischief and great japes, of trials and tribulations, bullying and triumph in adversity, sports days, school trips, romances, broken hearts, exam stress and even what the School of Life taught you.

Come and listen, or come and share. All are welcome.

7.30pm, September 7, The Bedford, Balham

Bodies

We all have one. Love them or hate them, our bodies do things we want them to do, help us express who we are, and get us from one place to another.

Maybe you’ve a story about a celestial body you want to share…

Whatever your take on the theme we’d love to welcome you to hear ordinary people share their story, and to invite you to join in with one of your own. 

7.30pm, June 8, The Bedford, Balham

Truth and Lies

Truth and Lies

The bald truth, the harsh truth, the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

Except of course for when we lie. From little white lies to out and out deceit and betrayal. As Stevie Nicks sang, tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies.

Stories of truth. Stories of lies. All real, all told by ordinary people.

May 11, 7.30pm, The Bedford, Balham.

HOLIDAYS
