Tenx9 is back at Greenbelt! Join us on Friday night for true stories on the theme of Shock. The event is at 7.30pm on the Friday night at the Leaves venue.

The theme for Greenbelt 2019 is ‘Shock’ - we are looking for a true story (not a sermon, not a reflection, not an essay) from your life about Shock. That electric shock you got; that shock you gave everyone when you turned up; that shock you got when you passed; that shock you got when you got the news. True stories, harrowing stories, sad stories, powerful stories, funny stories.

Tenx9 is a storytelling event where people have up to 10 minutes to tell a true story from their own lives — stories that shock, stories that delight. We’re not looking for reflections, or sermons, or morals, we’re just looking for a true story from your own life.

If you have a story you’d like to submit, have a read of our editorial guidelines and then send your submission via the submission form.

Also, Tenx9 has just begun on BBC Radio! Check out ’Tell Tales’ on BBC Sounds.
