How does it work?
The doors open at 5:30. Storytellers may sign up for one of the 13 spots (first come, first served) with the evening's host. Grab a drink and a seat. The show starts at 6 PM. When your name is called, the stage is yours for seven minutes. (You'll get a 30 second warning at 6 1/2 minutes. You will be gently ushered off the stage at 7 1/2 minutes.)
Can I just come listen?
Yes, please! The tellers love to have a big audience!
Can my kids come? Does my story have to be "adult"?
This is a 21+ event. All kinds of stories are welcome.* You can curse if you want. You can tell hard stories. Life isn't all kittens and rainbows. But we like kitten stories, too.
How much does it cost?
This is a donations based event. Ways that you can support this event and keep it going include buying a beverage or two at the event (and tipping the fabulous bartenders, of course!) and bringing a friend. You do not need a ticket for this event; however, if you get a ticket here, you may make a donation in the amount of your choosing. The host will also accept cash donations ($10 suggested) at the event.
No hatin'. Only love.
