Description

A common theme for most growing up is concealing things from your parents. Maybe it's swiping some Vodka from the liquor cabinet or sneaking out of the house late at night to meet up with that special someone. Maybe it's something in adulthood—an ideology or way of life that, if your folks knew about, they would never accept. Join us for our Don't Tell Mom StorySLAM, as we share stories about the secrets we keep from our parents, and perhaps, the moments those hidden bits come crashing down in a fallout for the ages. About The Monti StorySLAM (18 & up event) The Monti StorySLAM is an open storytelling event, where anyone with a story on a certain theme has a chance to tell it.  This is a competitive event, so there will be judges in the audience.  At each event, there will be eight storytellers chosen at random; each story is five minutes long; one winner will be declared at the end of the night.  Here's how you can tell your story.)
