Tenx9 Belfast Dec 17, 2014, 7.30pm

Our theme for Dec 17th is 'Gifts'. Yup, gifts. Gifts you've given, gifts you've received,not received, gifts you've returned, gifts you've abhorred, gifts you have never gotten. It doesn't have to be about Christmas gifts - any gift will do! 

We are delighted to partner with the CS Lewis Festival for a night of stories on November 20th in Belmont Tower. Our theme for this night will be 'East Belfast'. You'll need to book a free ticket - click here to get this. 

We are looking for 9 storytellers to tell true stories of up to 10 minutes (not a target! - just a limit) on the theme of 'East Belfast'. They can be stories of having lived there, of having moved there, or moved from there, stories of wonder from the neighbourhoods and the streets, secrets of the streets, nights to remember and days to forget. We can help you with writing your story so if you have a story to tell, have a read of some our tips and then get in touch with us. 

Our Tenx9 for November 19th 2014 is 'grand parents' - this can be interpreted in so many ways - your grandparents, being a grandparent, trying to be a parent who is grand, having parents who were grand or not grand. We want to hear stories that come to mind from this. 

Tenx9 in the Black Box, Belfast, 19 Nov 2014, 7.30pm

Tenx9 on October 22nd, 7.30pm in the Black Box. Our theme for this night is 'Sorry'. There are so many things to say about sorry - sorry for wrecking your car, for borrowing your straighteners, sorry for frightening you, sorry for not telling you the truth, things you've said sorry for when you shouldn't, and things you should have sorry for but didn't. So, come along - tell us your story. If you want to tell a story, check out our tips and then drop us a line. 

We're delighted to be back with Bellylaughs on Sept 25, 2014.

For our Show and Tell night, we want you to bring an item, and tell the story about it. It may be that ingrown toenail that you had mounted in a velvet box, it may be that silly trinket from the holiday that changed your life, it may be the urn that contains the ashes from your pet budgerigar or it may be the favourite pair of shoes that you can never throw out. We all have items that have stories and stories behind them. On June 18, in the Black Box, bring along those items, and tell the story of them.
