Warning Signs York Story Slam

- Performing Arts
Welcome to the York Story Slam podcast, where we feature select stories from our monthly open mic storytelling events in York, Pennsylvania.
On August 15, ten storytellers shared their stories with our audience at Archetype Pizza in downtown York.
Our theme this month was WARNING SIGNS. We heard stories about scary situations, new places and relationships, a highly anticipated celebrity encounter, and of course stories about warning signs that were summarily ignored.
In the end, our winner was Beth McLaughlin, who told a story about the times when everything was fine… until she showed up.
Beth earned a spot in our Grand Slam in November. Our second story comes from Swapna Deshpande, who told us about a time she got caught up in the anticipation of a celebrity encounter.
Our final story on this month’s podcast comes from Helen Dempsey. Helen shared what she learned while seeking a miracle on a trip to Arizona.
All the winners from this year’s open mic story slam events will return at the end of the season to compete for the title of Best Storyteller in York at our Grand Slam.
Updates on our events are available on our website, YorkStorySlam.com, and while you’re there, you can sign up for our monthly newsletter. You can also follow us on Twitter at @yorkstoryslam, as well as on Facebook, and watch videos of all the stories from our events on our YouTube channel.
We hope to see you onstage soon! Thanks for listening.
