Announcing our 2025 Call for Stories!

Yep it’s that time again — we are looking for those compelling, inspiring, funny, or surprising family stories that only you can tell. (Hooray!)

Send your 5-7-minute story (audio, video, or written piece) to Barbara at everyfamilysgotone@gmail.com.

Submit your family stories

We can’t wait to hear your family story!

Show/Rehearsal details…

This year our show is on Thursday, Oct 16 @7pm at The Next Chapter Bookstore in Huntington, NY. It has such a great vibe, you’ll love it as much as we do.

There will also be an EFGO Writers Workshop via Zoom (TBD) with the entire cast before Show Day. We’ve found that it’s a great way to provide supportive feedback and bring out the best performances. Plus, it’s fun!

Everyone is welcome to submit!

We are all about building a supportive community of diverse voices and experiences, so we want to hear from you! As always, our theme is “family” however you define it – could be the family you grew up in, the family you’re raising, friends who are family, work family, etc.

What makes a great family story?

It’s a story about an experience you had in your family that somehow changed you.

Maybe it’s a parenting moment that made you stronger. Or the holiday dinner that you’ll never forget. Or the fight you had with your best friend that made you think about things differently.

Need more inspiration to get you thinking about your family story? Go here!

The stories we share about family are powerful.

Our stories make us laugh, cry; offer up comfort, healing – and they deeply connect us. We cannot wait to hear yours.

So, submit your story today at everyfamilysgotone@gmail.com.

Submission closes August 15.
