### **Turn Your Experiences Into Stories People Remember – Storytelling Workshop (Hamburg)** ***You don’t need better words. You need better stories.*** We all have experiences, insights, and ideas—but often, they don’t land the way we want them to. In conversations, at work, or in front of a group, what makes people listen, remember, and trust you isn’t just ***what*** you say. It’s ***how*** you tell it. This workshop will teach you how to take ordinary moments from your life and turn them into stories that connect, resonate, and stay with people. *** In this full-day, small-group workshop (max. 8 participants), you’ll be guided step by step to shape a real-life experience into a compelling short story. You’ll leave not only with a story—but with tools you can use again and again. Storytelling is not a talent. It’s a skill—and one you can learn. *** ### What you’ll get: * A simple structure for storytelling * Practice speaking in a supportive environment * Feedback to improve clarity and confidence * A personal story you can actually tell *** ### Who it’s for: * People who want to express themselves more clearly and confidently * Professionals who want to communicate with more impact * Anyone interested in storytelling or personal growth (No experience needed. Workshop held in English.) *** ### Details: 📍 Hamburg 🗓 April 18, 2026 ⏰ 10:00–17:00 👥 Max. 8 participants *** More info & registration: [https://www.thebear-storytelling.de/events/2026/04/18/find-craft-tell-your-story-hamburg](https://www.thebear-storytelling.de/events/2026/04/18/find-craft-tell-your-story-hamburg)

*For English version please scroll down* **„Not (so) Human“ ist eine experimentelle Arbeit der Choreografin Christine Saulut Bonansea mit dem Komponisten Luca Foruccio.** In der interdisziplinären Performance erforschen die beiden Künstler\*innen mit interaktiven Visuals, Sounds und zeitgenössischem Tanz das Konzept der „Augmentation“, der Erweiterung menschlicher Fähigkeiten mit Hilfe von KI. So entsteht eine einzigartige Choreografie, die eine faszinierende Spannung zwischen körperlicher Präsenz und der körperlosen Natur künstlicher Intelligenz entfesselt. Christine Bonansea erschafft interdisziplinäre Werke mit digitalen Medien. Ihre Arbeit wird von US-amerikanischen und deutschen Stiftungen unterstützt und umfasst VR, AR und Robotik. Dauer der Performance: ca. 50 Minuten Sprachen des anschließenden Austauschs: Deutsch, Englisch, Spanisch, Portugiesisch **[Online-Tickets](https://dock11-berlin.de/theater/service/tickets) für die Vorstellung (€ 15 normal / € 10 ermäßigt / € 25 Soli-Ticket zzgl.

**🎬 Screenwriters' Meetup Invitation 🎬** This meetup is for anyone passionate about storytelling—whether you’re a screenwriter, filmmaker, producer, or someone with a great idea looking for the right collaborators. Whether you’re just starting out or deep into your screenplay, this is the perfect space to create, collaborate, and refine your work. **When You Bring Your Screenplay, Think About Three Key Ingredients:** 1. **Your Main Character** – Who are they? What drives them? 2. **The Central Conflict** – What’s at stake? What’s standing in their way? 3. **The Theme** – What’s the deeper idea that motivates you to tell this story? If you’re struggling to find a theme, define your character, or establish a strong conflict—don’t worry. That’s exactly what this meetup is for. We’re here to help you uncover the core of your story and give you the tools to develop it further. Already have an elaborate story? Great! Reflect on these elements: * **Compelling Characters** – Are they layered, dynamic, and memorable? * **Inner Conflicts, Interpersonal Tensions, and Global Stakes** – Does your story operate on multiple levels? * **A Strong, Personal Theme** – Does your theme resonate with you and give your story purpose? If you can identify these elements, we can dive even deeper and give you focused, constructive feedback to help your screenplay reach its full potential. Bring your ideas, your drafts, and your passion. Let’s collaborate, challenge each other, and create stories that matter. We can’t wait to see you there!
