STORY LOTTO

The Hub LA
Los Angeles, CA

Share this event:

Want to see LA's top storytellers compete in front of celebrities for the chance to pay their rent with a story? If this sounds good, then Story Lotto is for you. It's "American Idol" meets the "Moth," a cutting-edge crowd sourcing event that allows entrants to submit a five minute story and have a chance to fund their writing careers. Authors of the top ten entries will compete to win the event profits (hopefully at least $1,000) in front of celebrity judges! See LA's best compete in the "Hunger Games" of storytelling sans bloodshed. The person who brings the most people to the event also will get a special prize (have your friends mention your name in their Brown Paper Tickets form).
