Locals are invited to tell a true, six-minute tale, on
any topic, with the possibility of winning $100.
Storytelling offers a creative way to vent, entertain and usually fascinate with a favorite anecdote. Stories are submitted by email to dape317@gmail; five lines is enough to get
an idea of the tale. If your story is chosen, you get free entrance to the event, plus a guest and a drink ticket. Storytellers get to read their tale on stage. The audience votes by secret ballot; along with three local author judges, whose votes count for five points each. The winner of each seasonal show wins $100.
The OC Searches is produced by author/storyteller Mariana Williams and actress/playwright Debra Erhrardt.
