Join Tell Me More… for our storytelling night on May 17 at the Push Comedy Theater. Each month our storytelling night showcases several storytellers telling stories inspired by one word and a song.
Years ago, “Star Wars” fans made May 4th an international celebration. Locally, Tidewater Comicon decided May 16 through 17 would be a great weekend to celebrate all things sci-fi, fantasy and geek culture. We decided we’d stick with the theme being thrust upon the month with “Always the Fourth: Tales of courage,” because it takes courage to transform, to grow, to restore freedom to the galaxy… er… our minds.
Word and song of the night
For a little extra inspiration
The one word: Transformations
The song: “A New Hope,” Blink 182 (Never heard of it? See video below.)
