Calling All Story Tellers

I came across a wonderful organization on-line the other day called MassMouth – The Power of Story- The Living Art of Story Telling in Massachusetts. How can you not be intrigued?

On January 31st the organization is hosting its next “Story Slam” at
The Enormous Room & Central Kitchen 567 Massachusetts Avenue Central Square, Cambridge Hosted by Will Luera from Improv Boston.

I highly recommend this for marketing executives who want to learn the ingredients of good story!

What is a story slam ?

Based on a poetry slam format, a story slam is a contest of words by known and undiscovered talent. Each of the featured 5 minute stories is judged on how well it is told, how well it is constructed and how well it honors the time limit and relates to the theme. Prizes will be awarded at each slam. There is a $7.00 cover - $5 for students/seniors. You can get more information at www.massmouth.ning.com
