Ex Fabula StorySlams are live events where community members connect and share true, personal stories related to the nightโ€™s theme, told without props or notes. Come just to listen โ€“ or throw your name in the hat for a chance to share a true story related to the theme โ€˜Left No Crumbsโ€™ – Stories of food, cultural delicacies, cooking disasters, mouth-watering meals, and tradition!

At the end of the night, the audience votes by secret ballot to choose an Audience Favorite and our secret judges will select a Judges Favorite! There will be opportunities for youth to be a paid storyteller or volunteer, with extra cash prizes for the Audience Favorite and Judges Favorite.

The audience can also be a part of the storytelling by submitting UltraShorts! These are โ€œultra-shortโ€ stories on the nightโ€™s theme that will be read onstage by the emcee.
