The Moth StorySLAM is an open-mic storytelling competition in which anyone can share a true, personal, 5-minute story on the night's theme. Sign up for a chance to tell a story or sit back and enjoy the show!

Tonight’s theme is…

SILVER LININGS: Prepare a five-minute story about the bright side. The upside of your divorce/traffic ticket/broken leg. One door slams shut and, lo and behold, another swings wide open. The lost job that led you to your calling; the missed flight that gave you an extra vacation day. Bad news gone good! The consolation prize that trumps all.

Doors Open: 6:00 PM

Show Starts: 7:00 PM
