South Fremantle
Backstories is a multi-sited storytelling festival located in the suburbs of Perth and beyond. Spend a lazy afternoon with friends and family in the comfort of your neighbour’s backyard and enjoy hearing from two trained storytellers. Bring a picnic, something to sit on, and put your mingling hat on, it’s going to be a rippa arvo.
Our South Fremantle location features storytellers Ron Bradfield, Kris Marano, and Simone Dempster, and facilitated by Yohann Devezy. With music by Lee Schneider.
WHAT TO BRING
Bring your own snacks, drinks, or even a picnic dinner. If you’d like to be comfortable, bring a picnic blanket or fold-out chairs.
