THEME ️
*********
This month our theme is Pre-Loved ❤️‍

Expect stories of everything pre-loved and second hand. Stories of pre-loved clothes, toys, furniture, tools, musical instruments, pets, hearts, and anything used, regained and passed on. Repaired ski jackets, retro watches and second hand trainers. Family heirlooms passed down from generation to generation. Stories of ownership, repair and reclamation. Your vintage guitar, the abandoned fridge, or the haunted doll. Stories of anything discarded and lost, and then picked up and loved again. Or it could be stories of exes, break-ups and reunions. Relationships new and relationships past. The road to recovery, the baggage of a traumatic past, the pain of love lost, and the joy of being loved anew.

Do you have a story on the theme of Pre-Loved? Then come tell us at The Wardrobe Theatre on February 25th.

CONTENT WARNINGS ⚠️
*********
In the interest of making the Story Slam a safe and comfortable place to be, storytellers are able to attach content warnings to their stories, to warn of any sensitive or distressing topics. Details of how to do this will be explained on the day. Content warnings are read out before each story to give people a chance to leave the room if they so wish.
