52 Stories

Dave Morris—Son of Warehouse

If you think that witnessing a man memorize a deck of playing cards might not be much fun, you are wrong. Augmented by fanciful video projections, truly gifted storyteller Dave Morris walks his audience through 52 interwoven stories that are statistically improbable and functionally impossible to ever be the same again. Topics may include, but are not limited to: practical memory, emotional memory, re-written memory, disappointing memories, intrusive memories, idealized memories, favourite memories, and embellished memories.

Errors in memory are inevitable, but beautifully integrated. This performance is a profoundly Good Effort (for those who witness an Assyrian cultural memory, and understand the linguistic reference) or merely masterful mnemonics (for those who receive stories structured in another manner as the cards dictate).
