The Moth presents the Chicago GrandSLAM, a battle of wits and words – fierce, hilarious, heartbreaking, and all points between.
The night’s theme is BETWEEN THE LINES:
Listen as ten StorySLAM champions tell tales of exploring the subtext of it all: finding meaning in the margins, going off book, or defining adventure on their own terms.
The Moth is dedicated to finding people from all walks of life to tell inspired stories. At The Moth StorySLAM, those people find us. On this night, using words as weapons, winners from our StorySLAM series compete to determine The Chicago GrandSLAM Story Champion.
Each ticket purchase includes a copy of The Moth’s new book, How to Tell a Story: The Essential Guide to Memorable Storytelling from The Moth coming out on April 26, 2022! In celebration of The Moth’s 25th anniversary, How to Tell a Story is the definitive guide to crafting an unforgettable story in any setting. Whether your goal is to make it to The Moth stage, deliver the perfect wedding toast, wow clients at a business dinner, give a moving eulogy, ace a job interview, be a hit at parties, or simply connect more deeply to those around you, stories are essential. The book will be distributed to ticket holders the night of the GrandSLAM.
