Scranton StorySlam: As Luck Would Have It
Join us for a night of true tales by your favorite Irish friends...in a bar.
In honor of St. Patrick's Day and Parade Day, the Scranton StorySlam will celebrate the talent of local storytellers of Irish descent at the upcoming slam.
The Scranton StorySlam is a unique storytelling competition at which ten storytellers each share a true, five-minute, personal story inspired by the theme. Themes are always general, allowing the storytellers to take the audience in any direction, from pants-peeing hilarity to soul-wrenching heartbreak.

While storyslams are becoming popular around the country and around the world, the Scranton StorySlam is the first of its kind in our area. The event meets at the crossroads of theater, performance, writing, memoir, and documentary art.
Interested in sharing your story? Throw your name in the hat and caution to the wind. Two "wild card" storytellers will be invited to tell their story during the course of the evening. Same rules apply: FIVE MINUTES-ALL TRUE-NO NOTES.
The victor takes home fifty bucks and a Slammy, the prestigious StorySlam trophy.
