On Monday, October 30th (that's two weeks from today) the first edition of the Northern Liberties' story slam will be taking place at Standard Tap (901 N. 2nd St.) at 7PM. The contest is currently searching for "Storytellers, fiction writers and BS artists" to make up their ten contestants. Contestants will have five minutes in which to tell their story, and will be judged by the audience based on both their "delivery and substance." Entrants pay a $5 fee, the proceeds of which go to the top three performers of the evening. If you'd like to participate, email them at LIBERTIESSCRIBBLERS [AT] GMAIL.COM.
