About the Event

What roots you? Where do you belong? Sometimes our roots stem from where we grew up. Sometimes we find ourselves between playgrounds, home and dinner tables. Maybe your roots are people: our family or our friends, those who make us feel grounded no matter what. Is it that place where you find home even though it's new? Is it the soft toy you hugged to sleep, the tree you first climbed, the taste of an almost-forgotten dish? No matter how far we go eventually we all return to our roots. Come, tell us your "Roots" stories.


The Roots Story Slam will take place in Kolkata on 5th May at Openhouse, Theatre Road, from 2 pm onwards.
