Ya’ll - if you have STILL not attended one of Bab’s Story Slams - I can’t imagine a better time than going to the first one of the year. I can GUARANTEE it’ll be a good time!
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 (this month is Weird Shit Happens) chosen for the event without the use of notes. Audience members can prepare a story and enter their name in a hat or decide to sit back and listen. At the end of the evening the audience votes for their favorite storyteller. The winner receives a $25.00 gift certificate from Wolf and Cub.
Rules :
Five minute stories are required. If you go over there will be a 2 minute grace period. Tell us a story that has a conflict with a resolution or lesson. 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.
