This oneโ€™s a little special.
WILDCARD is back at Old Soul The Alley for our final night in this space, and it just happens to land the night before our big Nutshell show.
So weโ€™re leaning in:
๐Ÿ‘‰ Think of this as the pre-party.
๐ŸŽค What is WILDCARD?
WILDCARD is our monthly live storytelling open mic where anyone can step up and tell a true, personal story.
๐ŸŽค 10 storytellers drawn at random from the NOT HAT
โฑ๏ธ 8-minute stories
โญ Featured storytellers
๐Ÿงก A room full of people actually listening
Itโ€™s a little looser than Nutshell. A little more chaotic. And always magical.
โญ Featuring!
๐ŸŽฅJessica Robinson: (Yes, that Jessica. Sheโ€™ll also be on the Nutshell stage the next night ๐Ÿ‘€)
๐ŸบAlex Paez: A Sacramento favorite! Sharp, funny, heartfelt, and always worth showing up for.
๐Ÿ”ฅ Two Nights, One Story World
If youโ€™re coming to Nutshell on April 17, hereโ€™s the move:
๐Ÿ‘‰ Buy your Nutshell ticket first
๐Ÿ‘‰ Screenshot it and show tix guy Aaron [email protected]
๐Ÿ‘‰ Go to WILDCARD tickets
๐Ÿ‘‰ Select โ€œI bought a Nutshell ticket!โ€
๐Ÿ‘‰ Our Tix Guy Aaron will approve you
๐ŸŽŸ๏ธ That means you get into WILDCARD for free
(usually $15)
๐Ÿ’ก Why come to both?
WILDCARD is where stories are tried, stretched and risked.
Nutshell is where everything comes together.
Come to WILDCARD and you might see someone tell their first story or end up in the NOT HAT yourself
Then come back Friday and see a fully crafted night at The Sofia.
Itโ€™s a very good combo.
๐Ÿ“ The Details
๐Ÿ“… Thursday, April 16
๐Ÿ•– 6PM (come early for seats, sips, and nibbles)
๐Ÿ“ Old Soul Coffee Co. | The Alley (Sacramento)
๐ŸŽŸ๏ธ $15
๐ŸŽŸ๏ธ FREE with Nutshell ticket (see above)
This is one of our last nights at Old Soul before we move to our new home at Teneral in May.
If youโ€™ve been meaning to comeโ€”or come backโ€”this is a really good one.
Put your name in the NOT HAT.
Or come cheer for the people who do.
Either way, you belong here.
