Storytime is London's weekly story-telling night. It is a night for story-tellers, writers and poets to share their stories.
It is curated by local writer Adam RW and the Storytime collective.
We are back and we are now weekly. Our first night of the autumn will be hosted by Adam RW on Thursday 18 September at the Enid Street Tavern.
Collective Line-Up
We will have collective sets from Sarah Dungworth, Louis Scantlebury, Sam Humphries and our new resident...
Music
We will have an acoustic set from the wonderful Tears at the Table at the beginning of the second half.
Open Mic
The open mic will run through the night with names pulled from the hat as always.
There will be 1 open mic slot in the first half and 2 in the second half.
You will have 8 minutes if your name is pulled out.
Our open mic performers are a very important part of our night so slots are now paid - if your name is pulled out, you will have your ticket refunded, be paid £10 cash, and get a free drink.
Ticket Breakdown
Our tickets are now £8 plus Eventbrite fees. We have regrettably had to increase our prices to run the nights more sustainably - but we like to give you, our beloved collective, full transparency about where your ticket goes. Your £8 is split as follows:
£2.50 to the readers/open mic-ers - our readers will always take the biggest chunk from the Storytime tickets as they are the ones who make the night.
£2 to the host and door/admin team
£1.50 to the photographers/visual team
£2 to Storytime
This is calculated on the basis that we close to sell out. If we don't, it's Storytime that takes the hit - not our wonderful readers and performers.
