About this Event

The Rewind is a community of storytellers who gather monthly at DC Writer's Salon. Our open mic night is a low-stakes space to share a personal, true story (7min or less) in front of a supportive audience. Or just sit back and join the audience and see what some of DC's best storytellers are cooking.


Our suggested (totes optional) story theme for October is "Falling."


Note: While we encourage you to pursue creative expression in all forms (poems, personal essays and journalistic pieces), our stage is for true personal stories about something that happened to you.
