THEME ️
*********
This month our theme is Nightmare. Stories of everything unsettling, troubling and going wrong. Situations that went from bad to worse. Waking up with a start, finding yourself in a sticky situation, and going through a breakup. Chaos and pandemonium. Social faux pas, the thing you wish you hadn't said, or seeing something in the darkness. Ghosts, demons and halloween costumes. Horror movies, doomed expeditions, and catastrophic thinking. Or maybe the time you expected it to go awry, but everything turned out alright...
Do you have a story about a nightmare? Then come share it on 19th October at the Wardrobe Theatre.

CONTENT WARNINGS ⚠️
*********
In the interest of making the Story Slam a safe and comfortable place to be, storytellers are able to attach content warnings to their stories, to warn of any sensitive or distressing topics. Details of how to do this will be explained on the day. Content warnings are read out before each story to give people a chance to leave the room if they so wish.

The venue has full step free access to the theatre and the stage. If you have any specialised requirements to attend that we can help with, please get in touch.
*********
AGE LIMIT 👪
*********
Story Slam has no age limit. However the live and spontaneous nature of the show means that profanity and adult themes are to be expected. Children are welcome if accompanied by an adult, but parental discretion is advised.
