In a collaboration with the British Heart Foundation NI on February 26 2020 in the Black box, we heard amazing true stories From the Heart: Linda Donaldson survived against the odds thanks to passers-by; Jacqui English pays an emotional tribute to Tommy - “forever 50”; Seph Mallon introduces us to fighter Daithí. Paul is your host.

Tenx9 is a monthly storytelling event where nine people have up to ten minutes to tell a true story from their own life on a particular theme. It began in Belfast in 2011, started by Pádraig Ó Tuama & Paul Doran, and as well as filling the main venue in the Black Box, it has spread to Scotland, England, USA, Canada, Netherlands & Australia.

While it draws on the tradition of oral storytelling, we also encourage the shy, the nervous & the reticent.
