The 3rd Couch Stories Show March 2013
Theme of the Night - Wrecks and Wreckage

"Ouch Stories" from the Couch at the Boathouse

Picture
The theme for the third Couch Stories Show was inspired by this wrecked couch which we found abandoned in the Wakatu car-park 
in Nelson.

Suitably inspired, our twelve storytellers told tales of earthquakes & floods, ship wrecks & car wrecks, failed careers, misadventures in foreign lands, adoption and a feud with W.I.N.Z.
