January's Open Mic Storyslam

Tonight’s Theme is MY MAMA SAID!

Slam's happen at Living Arts in Tulsa every second Thursday of the month. 18+ to enter with a $7 door entry. Every event has a theme, and everyone in the audience is invited to share a personal story related to the theme. We take the first 10 storytellers to sign up once the doors have opened at Living Arts. "Judges" are audience members and previous storytelllers who score the teller/tale on 4 areas:

  • TIME (around 5 minutes)

  • THEME (does your story have the night's theme woven in?)

  • TRUE (is it a real story, not made up, poetry, musings, etc)

  • Well-TOLD (is your story engaging, has flow and depth)

The highest scoring teller gets a cash prize and an invitation to participate in the yearly GrandSlam in May. The winner of the May Grand Slam becomes the Best Storyteller in Tulsa!

(No stories may be read.)
