Davis to spin yarns at HART
Renowned storyteller Donald Davis will be performing “Our Stories Take Us Home” at 3 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 9, at the Haywood Arts Regional Theatre in Waynesville.
Growing up in Waynesville, Davis has fond memories of spending time with his relatives and running around the hills of Western North Carolina
“All of the stories are original and about growing up. They’re about trouble because those are the events in which we learn from. It’s all about learning and things that move us forward,” Davis said. “They’re all funny, even if they may be sad. They’re all set in the mountains of North Carolina. Some of the stories I tell have come through my family, but it can be a double story because I’ll tell you about that person and then the story.”
The show is presented by The Shelton House, with Davis donating his performance proceeds to benefit the museum, a private, nonprofit whose mission is to collect and preserve the heritage crafts of North Carolina.
Tickets are $20 for adults, $15 for seniors and $10 for students. They can be purchased online or at Blue Ridge Books and the Olde Brick House, both in Waynesville.
