2nd Sunday of the Month at Theater Wit

The lobby of Theater Wit fills with the aroma of homemade dishes as storytellers and story-lovers alike gather, each bringing their own contribution to our monthly feast. Some arrive with generations-old recipes, others with their favorite takeout – but everyone brings their appetite for connection.

By 7:00 PM, you'll find yourself seated in our intimate theater space, plate full of community-crafted delicacies, ready to experience Chicago's most unique storytelling show. Here, professional performers share the stage with first-time tellers, each voice adding its own flavor to the evening's narrative feast.

FAQ



How long do open swap tellers have to tell a story?

5 min with 1 minute overage. (Dan will gesture to let you know if you're going over.) 



What sort of stories are you looking for?

Embodied storytelling. A story where you are transported in the telling. For this to happen, it needs to be without notes. Nothing between you and the audience. While it's usually nonfiction, we do accept fiction stories. 



Are you really going to sell out?

We did not sell out at the last show. But we have sold out in the past and it'd be awful to make food, come, and not get in because there wasn't room. $5 is an insurance policy. 



What Makes The Story Luck Show Chicago Must See Special?
