From the emotional to the outrageous, spring into the ‘Untold Stories’ of Jacksonville at the Florida Theatre

“Untold Stories,” now entering its third season, is a remarkable initiative brought to you by the nonprofit Florida Theatre.

The mission of “Untold Stories” is to honor the timeless tradition of oral storytelling in a contemporary setting.

Each quarterly story evening unfolds with its own thematic arc. The stage comes alive with personal and transformative tales from a diverse tapestry of voices, including natives and residents alike, all intimately connected to the culture of Northeast Florida.

From artists and tech enthusiasts to entrepreneurs, educators, and medical professionals, each storyteller unveils memories intricately interwoven and shaped by our unique environment.

Each evening features a curated musical journey by a guest artist, creating a dynamic and immersive experience for our audience.

The Artistic Director and host of “Untold Stories,” Barbara Colaciello of BABS’LAB, curates the evenings not merely as a collection of individual stories but rather as a cohesive whole, akin to a series of mini-plays taking the audience on a rollercoaster ride of emotions, from laughter to tears, from introspection to inspiration.

Join the Florida Theatre at 7 p.m. May 30 as it continues to celebrate the power of narrative and the vibrant cultural mosaic that defines Northeast Florida -- its people, its landscapes, and its history -- one story at a time.
