The year 2020 presses on, and so do storytelling shows. Taking advantage of the greater connectedness from the internet, here are shows that I have found and sent to me.
While I normally only cover the DC, MD, and VA area, with all shows being online now, I have broaden my scope of storytelling so you can broaden your scope of story listening. With that in mind, do take a look at the Virginia Storytelling Alliance (VASA) Website (https://virginiastorytellingalliance.org/events/) as well as The National Storyteller Network (NSN) (https://storynet.org/calendar/?cid=my-calendar&month=5&yr=2020) as both of them have story shows that I may not have listed myself.
This month I’ll be telling a story on 20 Aug for Better Said Than Done. The link is below.
An important note, I have links to shows and the days they will happen, but the info about time, tickets, and other info you are going to have to click on the links, or check out their website or Facebook page. Pay particular attention to the time zone, as these shows are coming from all over the US, and in some cases the world.
Be sure to scroll all the way to the bottom to check for event. Some events that happen multiple times in a week or month are listed at the bottom.
Happy storylistening!
PS. I have been getting info on classes coming up the month of Aug. Because of the response, expect to see me start a sperate page on my site just for that soon.
