Events & Tickets

We are looking for judges for this StorySLAM. If interested, CLICK HERE!

Whether it was a speeding ticket that ruined your day, a judgement that changed your life, or the time you talked your way out of handcuffs with nothing but charm and dumb luck, we've all had run-in with the law. Maybe you were guilty as charged, maybe you were completely innocent, or maybe the truth lives somewhere in the gray area. From encounters with the cops, to neighborhood disputes, to courtroom confrontations and moments where justice took an unexpected turn, on August 19th we want to hear your stories about Law and Order - the rules we follow, the ones we break, and what happens when the long arm of the law comes knocking.

About The Monti StorySLAM (18 & up event)

The Monti StorySLAM is an open storytelling event, where anyone with a story on a certain theme has a chance to tell it. This is a competitive event, so there will be judges in the audience. At each event, there will be eight storytellers chosen at random; each story is five minutes long; one winner will be declared at the end of the night. Here's how you can tell your story:

• We publicize a theme (this show's theme is Law & Order).
• You think, "Hey, I have a story that goes with that theme!"
• You buy a ticket.
• You practice your five-minute story at home and in your car.
• You show up and fill out a form stating that you would like to tell a story (NOTE: You DO NOT have to tell a story to attend. You can just sit back and enjoy the show.)
• During the show, we will pick names from a hat at random, one at a time, and each person called will have five minutes to tell their story.
• After eight stories have been told, one winner will be declared!

Winners from each StorySLAM will qualify for The Monti GrandSLAM in April 2027. The GrandSLAM brings the winners back to compete for the ultimate title of The Monti GrandSLAMpion!
