How to submit your story

We’re looking for stories that only you can tell. Amazing stories that are hilarious. Or tragic. Or awe-inspiring. (Yes, THAT family story.) Interested in telling yours live on stage at our next show? Here’s what you need to know…

WHEN & WHERE:

Sunday, May 7th, 3pm at Industry, 344 New York Ave, Huntington, NY.

HOW TO SUBMIT:

Send your written 5-7 minutes story and a video of yourself telling it to:

Barbara at everyfamilysgotone@gmail.com

Put “INDUSTRY” in the subject line.

Include your full name and phone number.

MORE INFO:

There will be 2 writer’s workshops to polish your piece and performance. Dates: Sunday, March 12 and Sunday, April 23, time TBD.

A big part of EFGO is our writer’s workshop. If selected, we’ll 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.

Our storytellers receive a $100 honorarium.

DEADLINE TO SUBMIT: FEBRUARY 17
