Getting Away

The theme for our July story slam was Great Escapes, and we heard stories about getting out of a jail cell, narrowly missing trouble with the authorities, escaping from undesirable circumstances, and even one story about being terrified on a kiddie ride at Dutch Wonderland. The evening featured seven storytellers and our MC was Jamie Beth Cohen.

Traci Neal won an exclusive York Story Slam-branded journal from our friends at Story Supply Co and earned a spot in our Grand Slam in November.

Watch videos of all the stories from that night here.

Thanks to our season sponsor KBG Injury Law’s generous support, we get to continue our programming amid the current circumstances, and we get to share stories told at our events throughout the year - all stories are recorded and posted to our YouTube channel, and a selection of stories from each event are featured on our monthly podcast.

Save the date for our August 17 virtual story slam. The theme is Moving On. Registration will open soon for audience and storytellers. Make sure you’re signed up for our newsletter so you’ll be the first to know.
