Storymania - May 4, at Das

Do you remember that time when… You… err… you know? Pale paled for the
first time?
The time when you made a decision on a subject our parents evade, our
teachers ignore and our peers claim to know all about.

The time you decided, if, when and with whom.
This is the one thing that one can’t do alone. Okay, I’ve heard that,
sometimes in extremely difficult circumstances you can, but then that’s a
whole different story…

Sex is the closest experience of heaven mankind have, its a very
pleasurable act that routinely serves for procreation, as a bargaining line
and blackmail tool and also a weapon of mass discussion.

Long ago our old fashioned elders designed a deliberate and clear system
of initiating us to the important first sexual experience, but of course we
ditched it.

So what have we replaced it with?

How was your first sexual experience - was it painstakingly planned in an
exotic place, candle light dinner and intimate foreplay? Was it like mine,
a kissing session gone haywire and you were shocked to realize you did it
without your own consent?

Who was it you honoured, do you still remember their names? Ok you are
nice, you married them, but for those of us who aren’t sooooo nice it was
probably in a dingy estate corner playing cha kimama.

Kindly permit me to say this, we all love sex, we are all products of
sex, in fact seeing a person is also (by wild extension) seeing two people in
the act!

Who will tell our stories?

On the 4th May 2008 from 2pm till 5.30pm at the Das restaurant in
Westlands, Nairobi. Das is on woodvale groove opposite Bandari Plaza and near
Crooked Q in westlands.
A forum has been designed especially for you to share without fear, or
inhibitions, the place to tell it like it is. It’s a celebration of
Kenyans stories, our stories. It’s going to be wild, untamed.

After an explosive story telling session led by Nairobi storyteller of
the year 2007, Valentine Njoroge will question Dayo Forster on her story,
READING THE CEILING that talks about a young Woman’s first sex experience
and four different ramifications of that decision. Afterwards there will be
an open mic session for all of us to take part in and share.

Register now for the open mic!

Entry is 100/=

Spread the word like bush fire, coz this will be your hottest
storytelling experience yet.
