Confabulation

A classic Confabulation story from Adam Halpert — one of our favourites of all time.

Montreal based performer Stephanie Robert shares a story of child’s play and child’s peril. She also stops by for a brief interview about creating  Me, Myself and I — a new, autobiographical show about her life, her eye, and her family, playing at Mainline Theatre in Montreal – 3997 St-Laurent (just below Duluth).

In this episode, Matt talks with Katherine Hanz — academic librarian at McGill University. They revisit the story Kat told two years ago at Confabulation presents: Family. Kat’s story weaves together her family history with her own, and the interview explores this delicate interplay, the challenge of authenticity when sharing a story, and some other surprising topics. Or at least one really unexpected one. Music from Bent by Elephants and Gabrielle Papillion; two artists you need to check out.

In this episode, Matt talks with Taylor Tower — a Montreal-based storyteller and writer, and Confabulation favourite. They talk storytelling technique, preparation and what we mean exactly about truth in storytelling. Featuring Taylor’s most recent story, recorded at November’s Confabulation presents: Defiance. Music from Reversing Falls was featured in this podcast, stay tuned for their new album coming soon!
