STORYTELLING ON A HIGHWIRE

Great stories don’t have to be rehearsed. Sometimes the best ones happen on the spot.

Matthew Dicks (a record 61-time Moth StorySLAM champion) and Jeni Bonaldo (Moth StorySLAM winner) take prompts straight from the audience and spin them into brand-new, completely improvised stories in real time. No scripts. No safety net. Just two professionals who should absolutely know better.

It’s part show, part masterclass, part friendly competition. You’ll laugh, you’ll feel things you didn’t expect to feel, and you’ll leave knowing a little more about how to tell your own stories. Oh, and you get to vote on who won.
