Join SpeakEazy hosts Loree Burns and Mac MacDevitt for an evening of storytelling in the warm and welcoming stage-for-a-night at the Elizabethtown Social Center.
How SpeakEazy Storytelling Works:
The Sign Up list opens at 6:45 (if you want to tell a story). Or add your name to the list at anytime during the event.
Come and tell a story or just listen as friends, neighbors and visitors from all walks of life and backgrounds come together and share personal stories in a relaxed and fun event free from pressure or judgment.
No experience necessary.
No Critique. No scoring.
You don’t need to prepare. Any story is perfect - Stories you tell to family or friends or at your favorite watering hole. From your life story to what you saw in town last week.
"June. Summer is moving into full swing. Might want to tell a story about adventures on the trail, in a kayak or canoe, just hanging on to a cliff - or splashing in the kiddy pool in the backyard…"
But no theme required. Family stories, funny stories, heartbreaking stories – anything you want to share. You are welcome to tell from the head and heart, or to bring paper up with you if you want to.
When your name is called, the stage is yours for seven minutes.
Free Will Donation to attend!
