ROGUES & RACONTEURS
Creating a Community of Men Through Storytelling
The men in this community are all professional storytellers.
They were the subjects of Ray Gray’s documentary film, Brothers
In Word, in 2002.
When you hear your story spoken from someone else’s heart, you are redeemed. The Rogues have experienced this miracle in their community for sixteen years. This performance shares the kind of stories the men tell each other; stories of relationships among themselves, stories of family, stories of spiritual adventure and culminating with a humorous vision of retiring together in an eco-village for aged storytellers!
The Rogues have performed at the National Storytelling Conference. Most recently they performed at Psalm Salon in Philadelphia and the Theater of the Seventh Sister in Lancaster, Pa.
