Hey, Sacramento. We're back. ๐Ÿ’ƒ
WILDCARD! is happening Wednesday, July 15, and we really, truly want you there.
Last month, something changed everything: we introduced a new element where the storytellers themselves vote for their favorite story of the night. The winner takes home $50 and a featured spot at the next show.
It was a little clunky the first time. We're not going to lie. But it was also electric.
This month, eight storytellers get up, tell their truth with craft and intention, and then chooseโ€”togetherโ€”their favorite story of the night. True stories, told live, by you. With stakes. We love it.
๐ŸŒŸ Featured Storyteller: Michelle Wood
Last month, Michelle put her name in the NOT HAT, told her story, and walked away with $50 and a feature spot. This month, she's back with a story called The Second Time I Peed My Pants.
We're not going to tell you anything else. The title says enough.
๐ŸŽค The NOT HAT
Eight storytellers drawn from the hat. Eight minutes. True stories. Come early to sign up; spots fill fast. Some people tell their first story at WILDCARD. Others come back month after month to stretch their craft, compete for the prize, or be part of a room where humans actually listen to each other. Either way, you belong here.
"Anyone can step up to the mic. All we ask is that you step up with intention." โ€” THEE Amy Bee.
๐ŸŒ€ July's Optional Theme: No, Really, It Gets Worse!
A jumping-off point for anyone who wants one. No theme requiredโ€”the most unexpected stories are often the best ones.
๐Ÿท The Venue
Teneral Cellars, a beautiful wine tasting room in the heart of Midtown. Please come early, get a glass and settle in. Stay after and keep talking.
Your Nutshell Three:
Keith Lowell Jensen: host, storytelling mastermind, the guy who always says the thing that ties the night together.
Amy Bee: writer/storyteller, producer, co-host, most likely to be taking an anxiety nap somewhere inappropriate.
Aaron Carnes: scanning tickets, structural support, an aura of competence. (Eye candy status: hubba hubba, per Amy Bee.)
๐Ÿ“… Wednesday, July 15 | 7pm (doors at 6pm โ€” come sign up!)
