STORYTELLING DINNER

Hold 'er, Nute, she's headin' for the rhubarb!

Renowned NH storyteller and native daughter Rebecca Rule appears at the Corner House Inn’s Storytelling Dinner Program on Thursday evening, February 21st. Widely known for her live presentations of humorous New Hampshire stories, Becky will tell stories of Yankee talk and the Yankee attitude that goes along with it. By coincidence, her new book (#8 but who’s countin’) is called Headin’ for the Rhubarb: A New Hampshire Dictionary (well, kinda).

 

For more than fifteen years, Rebecca has gathered and told stories of the region, doing more than 100 performances annually -- at libraries, town halls, and for a variety of gatherings, from Farm Bureau meetings to quilters’ conventions to the reunion of the Dartmouth Class of 1945. Her collection of short stories The Best Revenge was named one of five essential New Hampshire books by New Hampshire Magazine. Other books include Could Have Been Worse: True Stories, Embellishments, and Outright Lies; and Live Free and Eat Pie: A Storyteller’s Guide to New Hampshire. She writes regularly for the New Hampshire Troubadour and UNH Magazine. She also hosts an interview show, the NH Authors Series, on NHPTV, and sometimes performs a touring program called Crosscut, with photographs and stories on logging, the mills, and the community of Berlin. For a taste of her humor, check out her blog -- with new stories every other day or so, livefreeandeatpie.com. Her web site is www.mooseofhumor.com.

Plan to spend an evening with Rebecca Rule and enjoy her homespun New England humor on Thursday evening, February 21st. Storytelling Dinners are held each Thursday evening at the Corner House in Center Sandwich. Dinner begins at 6:30 PM, and the cost is $19.95 per person, plus tax & gratuity.
