TELLABRATION!™ Sat, November 22, 8pm – 10pm First Unitarian Church sanctuary, 1211 SW 12th Avenue, Portland, Oregon Please join the Portland Storytellers’ Guild at this year’s TELLABRATION!™ featuring nationally known and universally beloved teller, MaryGayDucey. MaryGay grew up in New Orleans and moved to Berkeley in 1967. The Bay Area’s shifting social landscape and New Orleans sense of play have created an artist who relishes diversity and honors the importance of stories in family life. Her performances of contemporary and traditional tales have been described as full of wit, but aimed directly at the heart. Named one of Berkeley’s Distinguished Women, MaryGay has told stories from the Smithsonian Institution to San Quentin and has appeared at the National Storytelling Festival and on Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood. Fee: $15 General admission. For tickets go to portlandstorytellers.org About TELLABRATION!™ - TELLABRATION!™ began in 1988 in six towns across Connecticut. More than 1,000 story listeners enjoyed that first evening’s performances. The following year Texas and Missouri joined Connecticut to entertain a total of 3,000 audience members. Since then, TELLABRATION!™ has grown to more than 333 sites with an audience of more than 34,000. On the night of November 22 stories will circle the globe, touching the hearts of listeners on every continent save Antarctica. Come be a part of this amazing event.
