The next Delco Story Slam, scheduled for Wednesday, July 24, is themed “It’s My Job.” You can order your tickets and reserve seats through Burlap and Bean’s events page by clicking here.
What’s a story slam? Courageous people take the stage and tell their five-minute true story in front of a live audience. No notes. No props. No music. Just you and a mic. The winner of each month’s Story Slam is invited to return for the Grand Slam in November, where the winners will go head-to-head for the title of Best Storyteller in Delco!
Here are some ideas on the “It’s My Job” theme from the Delco Story Slam website:
We want to hear your work related story. Perhaps your story is about your current position, or maybe it is about a job you quit. We’ve all had crappy jobs at some point, maybe while working our way through college or tying us over until something better came along. Maybe you once had the best job in the world, and regret a decision to move on. Did your boss make your job miserable or did they empower you to grow and become a better person? Start thinking about your work related stories, and plan on joining us on July 24th.
Remember, Burlap and Bean has great coffee and food, and they are also a BYOB. Once again, the Story Slam is scheduled for Wednesday, July 24, and tickets can be ordered here.

Back in 2010, the West Chester Story Slam had a night with the theme “It’s My Job,” and this short story by Robert Williams about his job in Nursing became an instant classic. Check it out here.
