Since 2007, brave adults across Canada have shared their own weird and wonderful childhood and teenage writing at Grownups Read Things They Wrote as Kids, a live, onstage storytelling event.  This March, Grownups will be part of the line-up of special events at KCFF!

Travel back in time to remember the good, bad, and awkward parts of growing up. Recorded live on stage, adults share the weird and wonderful things they wrote as children and teens — book reports, poetry, diary entries, letters from camp, etc. Embarrassing, moving, and hilarious, these readings are powerful reminders of who we used to be.  You can listen to the podcast for a taste of what to expect.

For this special event, David Ridgen joins award-winning radio documentary producer Nicola Luksic for a behind-the-scenes glimpse at SOMEONE KNOWS SOMETHING, the series that has quickly become the most popular podcast in Canada.
