About
Nitin Sukhija
I tell stories.
Sometimes through long conversations with people whose work or lives interest me.
Sometimes through personal narratives — the kind that start with an empty bottle or a quiet memory.
Sometimes through cinema — the films that refuse to leave.
And sometimes, simply, by standing in front of a room and telling a story.
I've always been interested in people.
Not necessarily famous people.
Interesting people.
People who have spent enough time doing something to have a story about it.
People who have changed their minds.
People who have failed at something.
People who have made something.
People who have something to say — even if they don't quite know how to say it yet.
That's probably why I've spent so much time in conversation.
Listening is part of storytelling.
I used to host conversations under the name Left Right Centre.
That work continues here, on my own terms, under my own name.
Over the years, I've learnt that a good conversation isn't really about asking clever questions.
It's about paying attention.
The same is true of storytelling.
Why workshops?
Because storytelling is a strange thing.
We do it all the time.
At dinner. At work. With friends. In classrooms. In presentations.
When explaining why something matters.
When trying to convince someone.
When trying to remember.
And yet very few of us are taught how to do it consciously.
So I started bringing the practice into the room.
The workshops are not about turning everyone into performers.
They're about helping people notice stories, shape them, and tell them in a way that sounds like them.
Stories. Conversations. People. And everything in between.
This site is a home for that work.
The interviews. The personal pieces. The stage. The films.
And now, the rooms where stories are made together.
