How it Works:
- There are 3 open mic slots per show. Open mic participants are given 8 minutes (1300 words) in which to tell a true story. If more than 3 storytellers sign up we draw names for the slots.
- There are 2 featured performers for each show, who provide producers with drafts of their stories and are paid for their work. Want to be featured? Come see the show, and then email a true story (1600 words max) to dana@storyclubcleveland.com for consideration.

MASS HYSTERIA FEST STORYTELLING WORKSHOP
Sunday, October 24 6:30-8:30PM
Title: Your Stories are Good and You Should Feel Good
Imposters Theater 2406 Professor Ave Cleveland, OH
Ever listened to someone tell a really good story and think, "I want to do that"? Ever had something incredible happen to you and wonder, "How do I turn this into a great story?" Have your friends ever told you that your stories are amazing and you should write them down? This workshop is for anyone who wants to jump start their creativity and start creating stories.
Taught by Dana Norway, the author of The Storytelling Code: 10 Simple Rules to Shape and Tell a Brilliant Story, and founder of national nonfiction storytelling show Story Club. This workshop will show you not only how to tell a great story but also how to start working on your own story. Each participant will leave with an understanding of what makes a brilliant story and a strong start to their own true tale.
Workshop sign up is $20 and can be done here. Space is limited to 20 participants.
Proof of vaccination is required to enter the theater.
