Youth Story Slam for Ages 12 - 23!

A story slam is our chance to gather as friends and share true stories from our lives. Simply put, a story slam is a competition based on the art of storytelling. It puts a dual emphasis on content and performance, encouraging storytellers to focus on what they're saying and how they're saying it. It is an exercise in crafting stories within a set time limit and it is great entertainment! Story slammers will tell a 5-minute short story based on the evening's theme: I am. This slam is for young story tellers, ages 12 through 23!

If you know that you would like to tell a story, you can let us know by calling 978-701-5999 up until noon on July 22. If you are not sure yet, you will have the opportunity to sign up during the event.

Criteria for judging:
The story has an arc: a beginning, a point of change, and a resolution.
Presentation of the story.
Time (no longer than five minutes) and connection to the theme.

Please remember, the story must be true. The story must be yours. And you may not use props, notes or a written script.

If the show is not sold out, tickets can be purchased at the door (cash or checks only).
