“Untold Stories,” now entering its third season, is a remarkable initiative by the nonprofit Florida Theatre. Its mission is to honor the timeless tradition of oral storytelling in a contemporary setting. The incredible success of “Untold Stories” over the past three seasons is celebrated with pride.
Highlights of the Journey:
- Three Seasons of Excellence: Diverse narratives have been brought to life, showcasing the depth and richness of untold stories from all walks of life.
- Community Engagement: Performances have fostered a strong sense of community, bringing people together through shared experiences and meaningful dialogue.
- Innovative Storytelling: From traditional tales to contemporary issues, the innovative approach has captivated audiences and pushed the boundaries of what storytelling can achieve.
After two successful seasons, 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. Each evening features a curated musical journey by a guest artist, creating a dynamic and immersive experience for the audience.
Barbara Colaciello of BABS’LAB, the Artistic Director and host of “Untold Stories,” 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 in celebrating 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.
