Storytown Radio Show

With over a decade of seasons under its belt, the award-winning StoryTown Radio Show is a monthly, scripted production, based on local stories and regional music, and performed by an inter-generational, multi-cultural cast of local actors, storytellers, and musicians, to create an audio patchwork quilt of what it means to be home in the mountains

The Jonesborough StoryTown Radio Show is performed the fourth Monday of the month at 7:00 pm at the McKinney Center. Tickets are only $10. The performance is also broadcast monthly to the Tri-Cities region on the local NPR station 89.5 FM, WETS and uploaded to the StoryTown Podcast.

These productions celebrate the culture, history, and stories of the people of Jonesborough and the Southern Appalachian Region. Real stories, real people. This one-hour storytelling program is filled with true-life adventures of people past and present from Jonesborough, Tennessee, and the surrounding Southern Appalachian Region.  Each program presents stories built around a common theme.  All these stories, which are collected from the hills and hollers, and sometimes up in the mountains of East Tennessee, are scripted into a show that explores the culture, heritage, and history of these diverse voices. Surprising, heartwarming and often hilarious stories of the independent East Tennessee people come to life with a voice and accent that can be found nowhere else.

StoryTown is a community building group and open to anyone who would like to participate. Everyone is welcome, from all ages and backgrounds, regardless of experience. If you live here, you belong! If you have a story to tell, this is the place! For more information contact Anne Mason at 423.794.6320.
