2022 Call for Family Stories!
EFGO is back on stage and headed to Southampton!
STORYTELLERS WANTED
Every Family’s Got One is calling for amazing true family stories that only you can tell – stories that are hilarious. Or tragic. Or awe-inspiring. (Yes, THAT family story.)
Interested in telling yours live on stage? Here’s what you need to know…
WHEN AND WHERE:
Saturday, June 25 @ 8 PM at the Southampton Cultural Center, 25 Pond Lane, Southampton, NY.
HOW TO SUBMIT:
We are looking for fully written stories, about 5-8 minutes when read aloud. Please video yourself telling your story. Or, you can send your written story and any performance video so we can see you in action.
Send to:
Barbara at [email protected]
Put “SOUTHAMPTON” in the subject line.
Include your contact info: name and phone number.
MORE INFO:
There will be 2 writer’s workshops (dates TBD) to polish up your story.
A big part of EFGO is our writer’s workshop. If selected, co-producer Tony Mennuto and I will fully review your piece and offer suggested rewrites, edits, and performance tips – all to make your story the best it can be. This has been a very successful way to work, plus it’s fun to boot. Think of it as your very own mini-writer’s retreat.
Storytellers receive a $100 honorarium.
You will need to present the NY Excelsior pass or a COVID-19 vaccine card to prove vaccinated status in order to perform in this show.
NEED INSPIRATION?
Check out our site for writing prompts.
Read family stories on the blog. Listen to family stories on the EFGO podcast and watch storyteller performances from past shows.
DEADLINE TO SUBMIT FOR THIS SHOW IS APRIL 3
