-Proverb


Funky, irreverent, thought-provoking, honest and inspiring, our Storytellers are to "keeping it real" what HBO's Def Poets is to sappy poems.
8 MILLION STORIES is a dynamic and compelling LIVE performance program featuring real people transforming their life stories into powerful works of art, using storytelling as a vehicle for development and self discovery.
8 MILLION STORIES features real people and special celebrity guests from film, television and stage telling their own personal TRUE LIFE STORIES to entertain and enlighten through real communication. The movement has begun.
EVERYONE HAS A STORY…WHAT’S YOURS?

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

The most original, brilliant, brutally honest, and observant and flat out hilarious so-called “ordinary people” you will ever meet.

They are you, me, your next-door neighbor and anyone who has a great TRUE story to tell and knows how to tell it.

The people below have something to say...we like that.

Our Founder, MAILON RIVERA (www.mailonrivera.com) @ USC Bovard Auditorium.

The delightful Griot, THELMA SHELTON ROBINSON

"WHAT DOES A TEACHER MAKE?" by TAYLOR MALI (www.taylormali.com)

Real people, Thinkers, Dreamers, Do'ers, Entrepreneurs, Producers, Directors, Creatives, Investors, Storytellers, Writers, Artists, Mentors, Teachers, Entertainers, Lightworkers and any honorable, crazy and fractured person who has a story to tell and STILL thinks they can change the world.
