ROGUES & RACONTEURS
Creating a Community of Men Through Storytelling
The men in this community are all professional storytellers. They were the subjects of Ray Gray documentary film, "Brothers In Word", in 2002.
When you hear your story spoken from someone else’s heart, you are redeemed. The Rogues have experienced this miracle in their community for more than twenty years. This performance shares the kind of stories the men tell each other; stories of relationships among themselves, stories of family and home, stories of spiritual adventures around the world.
The Rogues have performed at the National Storytelling Conference and small theaters in the Philadelphia area. Most recently they presented a series of "home concerts" to raise money to rebuild the home of one of their members who lost his in a fire.
