The Yarn is live storytelling at its best: brilliant local storytellers spinning remarkable stories in front of a warm, inclusive and enthusiastic audience. The Yarn is sharing laughs, sharing tears, sipping wine & supping beers. The Yarn is making friends and making memories through stories – sometimes funny, sometimes sad, always memorable*.

In 2025 HWW founder James Young & Irish theatre-maker Helen Black started Story Club, a much loved live storytelling night. Now, Story Club returns, bigger and better than ever, as The Yarn, every month at the fabulous French’s Bar on Robertson Street.

‘Your antidote to doom-scrolling, AI slop, and rage-bait. You’ll cry tears of laughter into your wine’ - Anna, writer and Story Club audience member.
