Fish & Bear: The Most Interesting People You’ve Never Met - Burbank/Glendale
Mon, Aug 3, 12:50 AMThe most enjoyable way to meet new people. Mostly listening, you'll hear our similarities and our uniqueness. Both peaceful & invigorating. **[We post our events on multiple platforms. Please RSVP at [fishandbear.net](http://fishandbear.net/) if you'd prefer to pay on the night.]([https://fishandbear.net](https://fishandbear.net/))** A Truly Invigorating Social Event, Where people - often strangers - meet and tell stories. Nobody knows what story they are going to tell. It's time to truly connect again in the way that only sitting in real life, with real people, telling real-life stories can. Storytelling is the capability we have used to connect with one another and create the modern world. And yet, especially on social media, we have reduced storytelling to story-selling and mostly share opinions rather than real-life experiences. Our events are simple, timed, unprepared story prompts that help everyone who listens connect to our unique and yet relatable experiences. Often, the stories told are intensely funny, sometimes emotional, but always interesting. I call them games rather than exercises because they are fun and often frivolous, but there's no competition and no one loses - except those who don't attend! 😀 **Arrive before the start.** [No Stress Hydro-Gardens](https://maps.app.goo.gl/P5tUAQkbz2Sd8Hk87) We have a lovely room at the back of this hydroponics and exotic plant store for our use. Please arrive on time so that we can start promptly at 6 pm. **Let the Games begin.** We will start with a couple of simple story rounds for the storytellers. The first is almost always 'The Story of your name' because everyone is **the** world's expert in living their life with their name. **Break!** We host these events to encourage connection and community, so this break is there to keep it light and cheerful. So stretch your legs, or stand in line 🚽! **Part Two.** Now that we all know this evening's storytellers, it is time to play a couple more story games to complete the structured part of the event. **The End!** There's a little time to chat with your new friends while we clear up and reset the room.
