Our virtual slams continue! We'll host our October 20 story slam via Zoom. The theme is GOOSEBUMPS, and our MC for the evening will be 2017 Grand Slam champ Eileen Joyce.

At the end of the evening, we'll announce the theme for our Grand Slam in November, when all the winners from our regular season return to compete for the title of Best Storyteller in York.

There is no charge to register or attend. We will gratefully accept voluntary contributions via Venmo during the event, and put them toward future events.

You must register in order to attend. Once you register, we'll send you a confirmation email that includes the link to tune in on October 20. We will begin promptly at a 7 pm that evening. You'll click the link at the scheduled time from your laptop, tablet, or phone to join the call. You may wish to download the Zoom app if you don’t already have it, but it is not necessary to participate – if you don’t have it, the call will launch in your web browser. The app does give you access to more features.

And don't worry, we can't see attendees - only the storytellers are on the screen. Join us for an evening of live storytelling, from the comfort of your home. Register now, and you'll receive your own unique link to tune in that evening.

Want to tell a story?

UPDATE, October 8, 2020: STORYTELLER SIGN-UPS HAVE CLOSED! We will have eight storytellers participating in this event.

We're also looking for storytellers. We want to hear your stories of hair-raising experiences, tricks, treats, and things that go bump in the night. However you interpret this month's theme, we look forward to hearing your true stories.

If you'd like to sign up to be a storyteller, you'll need to sign up in advance by completing this form. We'll also need you to attend a rehearsal via Zoom the evening before on Monday, October 19 so we can do a quick run-through of the event and make sure everyone's links and equipment are working properly.

Storyteller sign-ups will remain open until noon on October 19, or until we have eight storytellers (whichever happens first).
