We’ve been through an incredible time, haven’t we? I never expected to see you again!
It was uncharted territory. Still is.
Hence the theme: What Now?!
"What Now" could be a story about anything that's happened to you during the Pandemic. But also — anywhere you found yourself not knowing what to expect, or what to do. Not knowing how to conduct yourself or what’s the appropriate thing to say. Not knowing how to get out of something, get through something — how to make it out okay. We want to hear how you did it and what happened in the end.
Or just listen with your fellow StorySlam aficionados.
At Luka’s, patrons are not required to wear masks.(But you can wear one if you want.)
Food and drinks are available from Luka’s. You can eat before or during the show. Order at the bar before the show starts. A server will bring food to you during the show. There will be one intermission where you can get another drink.
This show is appropriate for older teens, and adults. We cannot screen the content of the stories nor their delivery. That’s the fun of an open-mic storytelling show — you never know what you are going to get. There could be swearing. There could be adult themes, like sex. But you can be sure it will be short, true, and told from memory without notes.
Hosted by Julie Soller and Inanc Karakaylac.
