massmouth works to renew the timeless art of storytelling in Massachusetts by building audience while engaging a new generation of tellers using digital capture of story in live performances.
What is a story slam?
A story slam is a contest of words by known and undiscovered talent. massmouth posts a theme on it's website. Story tellers will sign up on the night to tell a 5-minute short story on the evening's theme and ten names will be drawn at random from a box.
Each of the featured 5 minute stories is judged by a panel of 5 volunteer judges. Judging criteria:
- how well it is told
- how well it is constructed
- how well the story connects to the theme
- how well it honors the time limit.
The 2 highest-scoring tellers are awarded prizes and an opportunity to perform at the "the big mouthoff" at the Copley BPL Rabb Hall on April 26th at 6PM. Prizes will be awarded at each slam.
