Toronto’s newest monthly storytelling show!
Hosted by Ronit Rubinstein and Panagiota Vogdou, The Yarn features performers telling funny, moving, and unforgettable true stories from their lives.
Fend off the Sunday scaries with us! Our show is on the second Sunday night of most months, 7:30pm at Wenona (1069 Bloor St. West), in the downstairs space.
New audiences and new storytellers always welcome!
Storytelling Workshops on Writing & Performance
At our June show, we announced a summer series of storytelling workshops... and before we could even sort out the logistics, we'd filled all the spots!
Ronit is so looking forward to diving in to this set of sessions with new and returning storytellers, many of whom you can look forward to seeing onstage in our second season...
If you're interested in being added to the waitlist for this set of workshops-- or if you'd be interested in a future workshop series-- please shoot us an email at theyarntoronto@gmail.com!
Our next show:
The Yarn is on summer hiatus!
We’ll be back October 4th for our second season of true storytelling shows!

Land Acknowledgement
This show happens on the traditional territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee, and the Wendat people, and the current home of many diverse First Nations, Inuit, and Métis people.
Our team consists of a child of immigrants, and an immigrant to Canada, so we are particularly grateful to the traditional caretakers of this land, where we live, tell, and hear stories. You can learn a bit more about the richly developed tradition of indigenous storytelling here, and donate to the Native Canadian Centre of Toronto here.
