The next slam is planned for February 21, 2015, at Ale Mary's, 126 Franklin Avenue, Scranton, PA. Ten performers will each have five minutes to tell a true story from memory, in the tradition of old-fashioned storytelling. To tie the night tog

ether the storyslam will have a specific theme. Themes are intentionally general, allowing the storytellers to take the audience in any direction, from pants-peeing hilarity to soul-wrenching heartbreak. It’s called a “slam” because it is presented in the form of a competition, which results in a high energy and engaging environment.
