The last True Stories Told Live Toronto of the year!
Mon Nov 27th @ The Garrison, Dundas St West @ Ossington Ave.
**The Garrison is wheelchair accessible, including washrooms** Doors open 6.45pm, stories start 7.30pm sharp. (latecomers admitted very quietly) We’ll finish around 10pm
The show is a really lovely night, friendly and warm. There is a 20-minute interval, but quite a few people come on their own with a book or something, so if you fancy doing that, you won’t be the only one.
If you want to come early and grab some food, The Lakeview diner (est 1932) is a few steps away, with the best shakes and sweet potato fries in Toronto.
Our wildly popular Halloween show GHOST Stories (Told Live) Toronto is back!
This fundraiser for (otherwise) free show True Stories Told Live Toronto features storytellers telling (mostly) true stories about eerie things that happened to or near them. Featuring some of True Stories Told Live’s previous favourites, and a few new faces. Plus the annual and ever popular Ghostbusters Theme Singalong!
We’re DELIGHTED to be back at the Toronto Storytelling Festival!! It’s been running since the 70’s so to be part of something so historic is magical!

The show is a really lovely night, friendly and warm. If you’ve been to one before, you’ll know that our storytelling festival shows always have BIG ENERGY. There is a 15-minute interval, but quite a few people come on their own with a book or something, so if you fancy doing that, you won’t be the only one.
If you want to come early and grab some food, The Lakeview diner (est 1932) is a few steps away, with the best shakes (I love banana-vanilla) and sweet potato fries in Toronto.
The show is a really lovely night, friendly and warm. If you’ve been to one before, you’ll know that our January shows are always a bit MAGICAL. There is a 20-minute interval, but quite a few people come on their own with a book or something, so if you fancy doing that, you won’t be the only one.
Masks are not required but are lovingly encouraged. There will be masked-only seating available.

GHOST STORIES (TOLD LIVE) TORONTO
Mon Oct 24th @ The Garrison, Dundas St West @ Ossington Ave.
Doors open 6.45pm, stories start 7.30pm sharp. (latecomers admitted very quietly)
THANK YOU to everyone who came to our last online show. WHAT a smasher!!! In the top 3 of best shows we’ve ever had. Want to see it for yourself? You can watch the replay here.
Heyyyyyy 6th wave! Toronto’s biggest storytelling show is back again — online and into your living room! This is a “best of” from far away guests who told stories at the online shows (with a brand new story thrown in to mix things up). In partnership with The Toronto International Storytelling Festival!
**ASL Interpretation provided**
Five storytellers will take you to places and live experiences you never thought possible (especially now!) and make you feel connected to other humans in a way that feels more essential now than ever.
These are PWYC with a suggested donation of $15CAD (but really, pay what you *can) with proceeds being split between the performers, producers and with Anduhyaun, a shelter and housing program in Toronto that supports Indigenous women and children.
DETAILS:
Mon May 16th @ 7:30pm—9pm ET / 4.30–6pm PT On Zoom — info on how to join sent when you get a ticket.
Storytellers: Jeff Harry (Oakland, CA) Olwen Wilson (Waterloo, ON) Khan Ramkeesoon (Long Beach, CA) Nick North (Salt Spring Island, BC) And very special guest, The Philadelphia Orchestra’s Official Storyteller, Charlotte Blake Alston (Philadelphia, PA)
If this show has taught me anything over the last 9 years it’s that, in BANANAS times when everything feels uncertain and weird and sometimes terrifying, listening to stories together makes everything feel better. The plan is to ask you to assemble at 7:25ish ET. If you can’t make it for the start of the show, you’ll be let onto the call as soon as the current storyteller has finished. As much as possible, it would be amazing if you can stay for the whole thing — and the stories I’ve lined up mean you’ll be glad you did.
