Congratulations Joshua Safford!
Ahh, I’m so happy that Joshua Safford was so well received!
Totally magical! Thanks so much for coming out. A good friend, Kristin Abhalter, (Creator of the awesome Runner Trophy we presented during the robot apocalypse.) invited me out to a magic show a stint back and it’s there that I was introduced to Joshua for the first time. I slipped him a Here’s the Story postcard and upon looking at it he told me plainly, this is the sort of event for me. (Special thanks to Amy Kuttab for her great artwork.)

Dec. 14th Features Feature!
Rohina Malik

Greatness. The show, as usual, will feature 10 storytellers. Five walk-ups, and five featured guests. Those are our features, invited to prepare a 10-12 minute long story, told in any way they like. Some of our tellers play characters, some use music or props, most just straight-up tell their story… but we welcome all to use that time to tell a story in their own way.
We do not dictate themes at Here’s the Story. Instead we invite everyone to begin listening for the story that wants to be told. on December 14th.
On the 14th, doors open at 7:30 for the potluck and open-swap sign up. The show starts at 8. The show happens at Stage 773, at 1225 W. Belmont. Feel free to rsvp on facebook.

Thank You
Thank you all who came to our November show. Sometimes it strikes me what a unique thing we’re all doing by getting together to listen to each other. How uncommon that is now, and how old it is too… how integral storytelling and listening are to the cultures we all came from.
As always, there were wonderful stories on Wednesday. Stories about searching, and about letting everything go in order to have everything, about looking for love and the loss of great love, and learning to be genuinely present in both. Stories about being good to each other. Thank you thank you to all of our tellers.

Congratulations Byron Roussin
We happily announce that one of the creative forces behind the upcoming Yard Times, has accepted the audience’s invitation to come back and tell us another tale as a featured reader. Thank you so much Byron Roussin.
It was a great show. I will be laughing for days to come regaling those who didn’t make it out. I suspect Janna will be writing up a swell little recap in the next day or so, and the podcast should be going up tomorrow or late tonight, but in the meantime:

Nov. 9th The Features Feature
Hello Chicago storylovers and storytellers! We hope to see you all for this coming Wednesday for November’s Here’s the Story! This month, we are graced with an incredibly talented lineup of invited tellers… solo performers, monologists, and professional storytellers, who hold storytelling as an important art, and have given the form much time and attention. They are also people who we just really happen to like… teachers, writers, actors, designers and activists… who make people’s lives better in a myriad of different ways on a daily basis.
As the season changes, we hope you will make plans to join us once a month, to gather round and snuggle in through the fall and winter, and enjoy an amazing, FREE evening of culture and laughter and delicious food and warm community. These events really are special. We’ve created them to be for and by and of all of you: the fantastic creators and thinkers who work and live in this incredible city together. We want you to have a place to be together to listen and be inspired by one another’s experiences and thinking. And, to get to just be in good company.
Here is some of the excellent company you’ll be in on Wednesday, the 9th:

Lovely Little October Show…
Huge thanks to everyone who was a part of last night’s show! It was a beautiful night full of wonderful stories; one of my favorites we’ve had… for it’s excellent tellers– both featured and walk-up– and for the fascinating themes that emerged. As lots of you know, we don’t dictate themes at Here’s the Story, which leaves the night open for threads to emerge that are more subtle and profound than anything we could have come up with ahead of time.

We will announce the winner by midnight, in the meantime I wanted to at least get the podcast up. (I did my best to fix it. The sound get’s better as the recording goes on. Sorry that it’s a little soft through out your piece, Jet Eveleth.)

Oct. 12th Features Feature
Happy fall, everybody! We hope you’ll join us for our October 12th show, to celebrate the turning of the season by cozying in for some good old fashioned listening and telling. We have a WONDERFUL show in store for you this month, featuring an exceptionally creative and talented bunch of storytellers. October is brimming with artists! Filmmakers, musicians, playwrights, multi-media artists, improvisors and award-winning poets. Many of our guests are highly regarded in their fields, and all of them inspire us greatly.
As always, in addition to our 5 featured tellers, we offer 5 open storytelling slots that anyone can fill, so bring your stories! These surprises are sometimes the best of the night, and by audience vote, one walk-up teller will be invited back as a feature at the following month’s show. We also host a community potluck dinner that always turns out to be magically delicious, and draw an equally delicious crowd of people to eat dinner with, if we do say so ourselves. And our show is still free!
So come out on October 12th to see the work and hear the stories of a bright spectrum of creative people. What better way to bring in the fall than with food and friends and all these sparkling lights?…
