- **Event Description**: Something big is happening on November 14th. And we want you there for all of it.​All year, WILDCARD! has been building something — a monthly open mic story swap where anyone can walk in, put their name in the NOT HAT, and tell a true, personal story in front of a room that actually listens. Eight storytellers. Eight minutes each. And at the end of every night, the storytellers themselves vote for their favorite story.​The winner gets fifty bucks and a feature spot the following month.​But what happens when all the winners come back?​This.​Welcome to the WILDCARD! Shiny Thing Showcase.​Our season's best storytellers — the ones who moved the room, won the peer vote, and earned their place — return for one extraordinary night. Twelve minutes each. Their best true story. Their moment to shine.​And here's the thing about this particular competition: everybody wins.​Every storyteller takes home a Shiny Thing. Because that's who we are — a community that believes in celebrating the people brave enough to stand up and tell the truth out loud. And then, at the end of the night, the audience votes for one story to take home the Even Shinier Thing.​Because some stories are just that good.​This is WILDCARD!'s Grand Slam. Sacramento-style. With our own twists. And it is going to be a night.​The Storytellers:​Michelle Wood — WILDCARD!'s inaugural winner. She walked into the NOT HAT in June, told her story, and walked out with $50 and a feature spot. Then she came back in July and wowed as a feature. Michelle is the reason the Shiny Thing Showcase exists.​Victoria Goldblatt — actor, playwright, award-winning director, and Neuroscience Health Consultant, which remains the most interesting combination of credentials we've ever put on a WILDCARD poster. She brought a story about the day everything changed. The room has not fully recovered.​Frances Southwick — friendly family doctor, storyteller, and nonfiction writer from Davis. They brought a tale of love and narcolepsy and won the room completely. Bobby and Small (the cats) are very proud.​THERE ARE TWO SPACES LEFT! WILL YOUR STORY BE ONE OF THEM?
