Tuesday storytelling
our experimental storytelling nights
EVERY tuesday.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Welcome to the hottest, most daring Storytelling evenings in town! Join us on
Tuesday nights as we delve into uncharted territories, weaving tales with
unknown topics. It’s a thrilling adventure as we explore new horizons together,
embracing the allure of the unexpected. Get ready for an unforgettable evening
of passion, mystery, and the art of storytelling.  Welcome to the uncharted
realm of our storytelling experiment.

MYTHOS – STORYTELLING NIGHT

We go beyond today’s stories by asking a few of our tellers to dive into world
myths. Rich and varied as they are, each month we pick a different world
tradition, and ask tellers to pick a tiny yarn to dive into. Except a varied
night full of surprises! Every first Tuesday!

TELL, THEN SHOW

Come and tell us about your favourite song – your favourite book or film. Or the
song that pisses you off the most, the film that changed your life … Every
second Tuesday! 

SAMIZDAT: STORIES FROM THE UNDERGROUND

On this Tuesday storytelling night we tell stories that are directly related to
the social and political struggles of our times. 

QUEER STORIES

Mezrab regulars and a few fresh faces come together to share stories and music
related to LGBTQI+ themes. After all, what’s a better way to strengthen the
community and to fight bigotry than sharing stories.

PEARLS ON A STRING

The night we want to fuse improv and storytelling, like pearls on a string of …
eh … (every 4th Tuesday!)

OFF THE PAGE

Written text and spoken word – is there a common ground? Every book has at least
five pages and every once in a while a month has five Tuesdays.

WEDNESDAY WEDNESDAY STORYTELLING DAY WEDNESDAY

open mic storytelling nights
EVERY wednesday.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These are the nights we are most looking forward to: where the unexpected and
the spontaneous happens – we as organisers don’t know, not the host of the
evening and not you, the audience.

The Wednesday nights are the open stage nights in Mezrab. It means that anyone
is welcome to tell, purely on a first come first serve basis.

If you are ready for a story, or if you want to try new material, or if it’s
your first time, send a message to openstage@mezrab.nl to reserve a spot.

We also leave two spots for the spontaneous.

nights

CONCERTS

Concerts with music (and musicans) from all over the world.  

FULL SOLO STORYTELLING SHOWS

Either there is a chance to see one of our own storytellers in his full
professionalism, or we invite an international guest to do a full show.

NEW HARVEST NIGHT

The storytellers you know and love, who often perform on our Wednesdays and
Fridays, will present to you new work at our New Harvest event. They have
invested in longer stories, bringing you more experimental material. Some of
these stories will turn into longer shows. All of them need you, a captive
audience, to listen and enjoy the fresh fruits.
