Story power!
After you enter Story Story Night, you'll see a little card with the Story Story Night talk bubble.
Write your name on the back of this card, drop it in our hat, and you'll be entered in our story slam. You'll also have a chance to brave up and submit your name during the intermission.
Our featured storytellers become judges for the story slam following the intermission. We draw names from the hat, and the chosen few stand up on stage, without notes, and tell a true, 5-minute story on the theme. Our musician warns slammers when their time is out, and they need to quickly wrap it up.
Story Slam ground rules:
a) your story needs to be true and told without notes.
b) your story needs a beginning, middle and end.
c) your story needs to stay on theme.
d) your story should be 5 minutes or less.
Preparation is power. Shape the arch of your story in advance. Does it have dramatic tension? Do the details sizzle? Does it fit in five minutes? REMEMBER: in order for Story Story Nights to be both family and radio friendly, keep in mind language and content.
After the story slam, our judges select a winner for the night. He or she receives a sizeable prize package and the exhilaration of a story well told.
See you on stage.
