Story Café with Saskia Leder: Stories, Attitude, and an Afternoon Full of Linguistic Power
At the Alfred-Zingler-Haus in Gelsenkirchen, the Story Café will open a space for personal stories, read texts, and spontaneous literary contributions on August 17, 2026, at 2:30 PM. The afternoon is aimed at everyone who wants to listen, tell, or simply immerse themselves in a lively reading atmosphere. Admission is free, but registration is required.
A Format Between Storytelling and Meetings
The Story Café thrives on its open dramaturgy: Anyone can participate, no one has to. This mix of voluntariness, conversation, and literary exchange creates an intimate atmosphere where language is shared, not presented. Finished stories are welcome, as are short, personal, reflective, or humorous contributions.

Saskia Leder as a Guest with Stage Presence
Special guest is stage combat choreographer Saskia Leder. Her work combines body awareness, scenic elements, and narrative energy; on her artist page and in theater profiles, she is described as an actress, director, and choreographer with diverse stage engagements. For this afternoon, she brings the topic of hitting and stabbing: a literary sharp look at fighting, self-defense, and engagement in everyday life.

A Topic with Contemporary Relevance
Between everyday heroes, role models, and the question of inner strength, a conversational space emerges that goes beyond the classic reading. Those interested in storytelling culture, literary forms of reading, and the intersection of performance and language will experience a small, focused cultural event with social resonance. The event thus stands for reading promotion, cultural participation, and the value of personal storytelling.
