Oklahoma City StorySlam

Oklahoma City StorySlam-Live Entertainment for Free

A StorySlam is an open mike, competitive storytelling event. There is a theme for each evening’s event, and stories told must somehow relate to the evening’s theme. Participating StorySlammers arrive early to sign up and names are selected at random. StorySlammers will spin tales of 7 minutes or less. The performance should be told rather than read. Creativity is encouraged, truth is optional. Winners are selected by crowd response so bring all of your loud friends!

This event is FREE and anyone is welcome to participate or listen to the stories. However, story content is often geared toward an adult audience. The evening will continue until everyone has had a chance to tell a story and the winners have been selected. For more information, email at okcstoryslam@yahoo.com or visit http://okcstoryslam.wordpress.com. You can also find OKC StorySlam on Facebook.

Generally held at the Istvan Gallery, 1218 N. Western, on the second Friday of each month. Questions? Call Stephen Kovash 405-831-2874.

The OKC StorySlam MySpace page is pretty much defunct. Molly has established an OKC StorySlam Webpage here: http://okcstoryslam.wordpress.com/
