*** Story Slam is a live storytelling performance where 'real people tell real stories about real events'.**

* Story Slams were originally organized in 2001 by The Moth, a non-profit literary society from New York City as competitions - with scoring, judges, and winners.

* Joey Novick's Story Slam is part solo-performance, part traditional story slam, part audience engagement

* Joey ACTS AS HOST AND shares stories from his own award nominated solo shows ---and invites audience members to listen and see where they are joyfulling engaged, and reminded of their own stories.

* Attendees can sign up in advance to tell a story, or be inspired by stories they hear to share their own personal stories!

* I't's not a competition --- when stories are shared, everyone wins!
