Storytelling @WT: Chance Encounters
A plane ride, a park bench, a lost wallet, a broken vacuum cleaner…sometimes the unlikeliest meetings in the most random of circumstances can change the course of our lives. Inspired by the unexpected rendezvous of Guy and Girl in WT’s production of Once, join some of Chicagoland’s best storytellers and members of the New Trier Poetry and Creative Writing Club as they share personal tales of the chance encounters that shaped their lives.
Presented in partnership with Glencoe Youth Services.
