It’s all getting too much! Sometimes we have to break down. It’s too tough emotionally, events get on top of us or maybe you were just unlucky enough to buy a crap car that keeps on breaking down. Whatever your interpretation of ‘breakdown’ we’d love to hear your story set around a breakdown or maybe the breakdown was a small but pivotal moment in a much bigger story. Come on down to The Camden Head to hear some great stories about breakdowns and hopefully no one does that on stage…

Our shows are friendly. open, intimate and honest and the stories moving, life-affirming, shocking, captivating or just plain hilarious. It’s different to a comedy show where the expectation is laughter… here laughter comes, but it’s a part of a whole breadth of other emotions and reactions to the stories and it makes for a rich, fulfilling evening’s entertainment.

Come on down and experience one of the friendliest and most memorable nights London has to offer. We’d love you to get involved, whether it’s telling a story, suggesting a new theme or just coming down to watch the night, there is something for everyone at Natural Born Storytellers…

If you have a story on the theme of ‘Breakdowns’ and would like to perform, please send us an email at naturalbornstorytellers@gmail.com
