About this Event
StorySlam Oakland is Oakland's longest-running true storytelling show, where people tell short and true stories from their lives. Or just listen and laugh.
Anybody can put their name in the hat for a chance to tell their true, personal story on the theme.
We present one pre-booked Featured Storyteller from our wonderful storytelling community. These are people who have won awards at various shows, or just are known to us for their great storytelling style and charisma. The Featured Storytellers tell true, personal stories, but a little longer than the open-mic stories. They normally close out the show.
Sometimes people show up in the audience who we know are really fun storytellers. And we may pull one of them up as a “special guest” and bypass the hat. All the other storytellers are pulled at random from the names in the hat. We usually have time for 8 to 10 storytellers at each show.
