Produced and Hosted by Amy Salloway
Story Club Minneapolis is starting its 6th year as Minneapolis's only live monthly storytelling show featuring both an open mic segment and a curated set of performers from all over the Twin Cities arts scene (and beyond). The Story Club stage showcases autobiographical stories -- especially those that are bold, vulnerable, unexpected, and connected to the complexity of our cultural environment... and especially voices that audiences might not get to hear in other contexts. No two Story Club evenings are ever alike, but each month when we wrap up the show, we feel like weve witnessed a new, unique little community coming together.
So! Starting at 6pm, audience members are invited to put their names in the jar for the opportunity to tell an up-to-7-minute story onstage. When the show begins, four tellers are drawn at random to perform, and they'll be followed by our featured guests. Does this make you want to tell a story? GOOD! (Do it! Do it! Do it!)
Story Club's host and producer is Amy Salloway! Amy's been an actor, writer, storyteller, podcast contributor and teaching artist in the Twin Cities for about 18 years this time around (yes, there were previous times around). You can find out more about her at http://www.amysalloway.com.
September's featured performers are Pam Colby and Heather Beatty!
Pam Colby works as a freelance film producer/director and storyteller in the Twin Cities. She teaches Cinema and Documentary classes at Film North. Recently, her Moth Grand Slam winning story was featured on National Public Radio. This inspired her to mix storytelling and filmmaking in her most recent documentary, Not in My Lifetime, which was an Audience Choice winner at the 2018 Minneapolis-St. Paul International Film Festival. You can find out more about Pam at www.notinmylifetime.info, and www.pamcolby.com.
Heather Beatty is a poet, writer, soap maker, and public artist. Her poems have appeared in The Paterson Literary Review, The San Diego Poetry Annual, Getrude, KYSO, Nice Cage, and other literary journals. Her public art works include The Bubblegum Poetry Machine, The Bottle Project, and a Pop Up Museum series. She performed this May as part of the poetry and storytelling show Interlocking Monsters and Friends at Nats Uptown Books. Heather lives in St. Paul.
