We hope to see you on August 27 at 7 pm at Zoetropolis for this month’s story slam. The theme is Tangled Web, and Swapna Deshpande will be our emcee for the evening.

Tickets are on sale now. Please visit our Tickets page to get yours.

Doors will open at 6:30 pm that evening, and we start telling stories at 7 pm.

What type of stories fit the theme Tangled Web?

Our tangled webs aren’t limited to lies. Sometimes our plans can become overly complicated. Personalities can make families quite complicated even without the complicating accelerant of divorces, separations, remarriages, or realization of gender identity and sexual preferences. Business deals, friendships, career plans, today’s to-do list can all get tangled. And of course there are lies. Lies told out of kindness, lies told to create/preserve a veneer of civility, lies meant to be self-serving, lies of pure deceit. What Tangled Web(s) have you spun or entangled you? Did you escape or are you still struggling to get free? Are entanglements all bad?

However you interpret this month's theme, we look forward to hearing your true stories. If you have a story, sign in at the table in the back of the theater when you arrive.
