WHAT'S A STORY SLAM?

A story slam is a live storytelling friendly competition similar to poetry slams. Storytellers have 5 to 7 minutes each to tell a TRUE personal story based on a THEME chosen for the event without the use of notes.

HOW IT WORKS

•Every story slam event has a HOST and a THEME.

•Audience members can prepare a story and enter their name in a hat or decide to sit back and listen.

•8 - 10 people's names are picked from the hat.

•At the end of the evening the audience votes for their favorite storyteller.

• The winner receives a $50 Gift Certificate from Wolf & Cub, Our fave downtown Shop!

STORY SLAM RULES

• Five minute stories are required. If you go over there will be a 2 minute grace period. It would be a shame if we didn’t hear the ending.

• Tell us a story that has a conflict with a resolution or lesson. Stakes are high.

• No ranting, or sermonizing.

• No notes. You won’t need them. It’s your story. Speak from your heart and Invest in what you say.

• No props. Just you.

WE WANT YOU TO FEEL COMFORTABLE

• Please be considerate, and mindful. It will take the whole tribe to make this evening FUN and SAFE.

• We request that out guests are vaccinated and wear masks indoors as COVID numbers are UP!!
