The Story Collider returns to Wellington for the final show of 2019. Join us Sunday 3 November for a night of true, personal stories about science told live on stage.

From the tragic to the hilarious, we'll explore the deeply human side of science with stories drawn from everyday experiences and truly uncommon occurrences.

This live performance involves five brave souls telling stories about how their lives have changed for ten minutes each. No notes, no props, and no powerpoint presentation.

This show, co-produced by Ceridwyn Roberts and Dacia Herbulock, will feature Huhana Smith, Victoria Manning, Arihia Latham, Susan Rapley and Rebekah White.

Doors open at 6pm, show starts at 7pm at The Fringe Bar. Please arrive early for the best seats. Seating is not pre-assigned or guaranteed.
