West Side Stories-Mistakes

Everybody's got a story!
No-really everybody has at least one go-to story. You know the one you tell, the one that bails you out of that awkward silence at get togethers. You should think about telling it at West Side Stories.
Award winning storyteller Dave Pokorny hosts the festivities.
WSS are limited to five minutes, and ten names are pulled out of the hat at random. Those ten stories are heard.
These tellers, bring stories to life they make us laugh, sometimes make us cry, always make us think, and take us on journeys we never dreamt we'd go on, to places we never envisioned we could visit. Stories can survive only if they are shared.
If you want to share your story or you just come out and enjoy the five-minute tales that others tell-you need to get your tickets in advance. WSS has sold out 23 consecutive months. Tickets are available at brownpapertickets.com
Get 'em while they're still only $5!
If you haven't been to one of the shows well...
Our goal is to give your stories a forum.
But it also is a StorySlam!
Sonoma Portworks provides a stage, a mic, a theme to inspire and a lively and supportive audience.
After all 10 stories are heard, just as randomly as the tellers are chosen an audience-member is selected to chose their favorite story of the evening, that teller wins $50 cash! And is entered into the GrandSlam in December.
Come listen, enjoy, share and let your mind be transported and
You'll live happily ever after
