StorySLAM
The StorySLAM is a live storytelling competition in the vein of poetry slams[1] organized by The Moth, a non-profit literary society from New York City, since 2001. Storytellers (slammers) have 5 minutes each to tell a story, based on a theme chosen for the event.[2] No notes are allowed: stories must be told and not read.[3][4] The events, held in cities around the United States, now also include a competition;[5] participants are judged by teams of audience members.[6] The organization also holds a biannual Grand Slam competition.[7][8]
Notables performing at StorySLAMs include Moby, Lili Taylor, and Frank McCourt.[9]
