First time storytellers are also invited to take part in an online Story Prep session with us, one week before the Slam, where we help you tease out your story before sharing it on the big stage. The Dublin Story Slam - FoolsThis April, you’re invited to share a personal true story inspired by the theme, Fools. From rushing in and making big mistakes in life to unwise decisions at work that you’ve come to regret. Or perhaps your story is about the time you were a love fool, from falling for the wrong person to letting the right person slip away. We also welcome stories about practical jokers, acting the maggot and playing a trick on someone that didn’t quite go as expected. Whether you’ve ever been taken for a fool or just played one, come share your personal true story this April’s Fools Days with The Dublin Story Slam.What the heck is a Story Slam?A StorySlam is a competitive open mic storytelling night. Personal true stories only - so no poetry, spoken word, fiction, music please - just a true story about something that happened to you that you want to share. On the night we pick up to 8 names to come and at the end of the night, Judges in the audience choose an overall winner who is named as our Story Slam Champion. Story Slam Champions go on to compete for the title of GrandSlam Champion at our annual show at The Abbey Theatre. Zero experience needed!!!How our Story Slam Works:StorytellersThis Jan we're inviting anyone to share a true personal story, 4-7mins long and inspired by the theme Fools. Stories can be funny, sad, silly and serious but they need to be true, about you and shared without any notes, scripts or props onstage.Think of us as a close friend you're sharing a personal experience with rather than a performance you need to script, rehearse &amp; memorise. Some of our most memorable storytellers have been people who have never been onstage before. Just be you and the rest will follow! You can watch back this video about how to tell a story over on our You Tube Channel.I wanna tell a story - how do I sign up?To be in with a chance to tell a story, you can sign up to tell a story in two ways:Sign up in advance - Email us the first line of your story to story@thedublinstoryslam.com from December 29th. If selected, you get in for FREE and FIRST so you can save some seats for your friends. You'll also definitely get to share your story on the night.Sign up on the night - Not sure yet? You can also just buy a ticket, head to the show and sign up to tell a story on the night. However's there's a chance your name might not be picked depending on how many names are in the hat. If you want to be certain you'll get to share your story, then sign up in advance.Anything else I should know?On the night we pick a max of 8 names at random from the bucket. If you get called, you get up onstage and share your story that can be between 4-7mins long. Remember no notes are allowed onstage! At the end of each story, Judges in the audience will give a score out of 10 and at the end of the night, we'll announce the winner of The Dublin Story Slam. The winner then goes onto compete in our annual Grand Slam event at the end of the year.AudienceAt each show we also invite the audience to share their own mini epics by filling out an audience slip. Each month we ask a different question that you can reply to anonymously. Eg Tell us about a time you had a close call! Our host selects a number of these mini epics and reads them out loud &amp; anonymously onstage during the night.JudgesIf you've been to one of our shows, you'll know that we have three teams of Judges, selected from our audience. Each team gives each story a score out of 10. These scores are tallied up and at the end of the night we choose a winner. Teams can be up between 2-4 members. You need to have a ticket to be on a Judging team but we'll also invite you in first ahead of the queue so you can grab some good seats for the show.

                "description": "The Dublin Story Slam is produced by Julien Clancy & hosted monthly by Comedians Colm O'Regan and Sharon Mannion. The Dublin Story Slam was born in May 2017 and shares true personal stories from listeners through our Podcast, live events and social media.  From the very start we were passionate about creating a Dublin space where people from all kinds of backgrounds can get together to share & listen to stories. We believe in the power of storytelling, the healing power, the bonding power and the lasting power of stories that can stun a room into complete silence and make it erupt into laughter a second later.  However we also believe in the power of listening. It's incredible to witness the impact a receptive and warm audience can have on a nervous first time storyteller and watch how more confident and relaxed they become as they realise that the audience really wants to hear their story.  It's this unique relationship between storyteller & audience that makes The Dublin Story Slam such a unique space for stories."
