First Person StorySlams, Theme: Brother Love (And Sisterly Affection) February 25, 2008
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19147
The monthly competitive storytelling series, which began in April 2007, has captivated the city’s storytelling community and attracted an online audience through monthly liveblogs and videocasts on www.uwishunu.com. Everyone with a true story and a little sense of competition is encouraged to participate. Storytellers are invited to interpret the theme as inventively as they’d like, sharing with the audience tales about any real life experience that relates to the theme. At each slam, ten participants have the chance to step up to the mic and tell a story within a five minute time limit. Contestants are judged by their peers, and each month’s highest scorer wins an invitation to the Grand Slam to compete for the title of Philadelphia’s Best Storyteller at the seventh annual First Person Festival of memoir and documentary arts in the fall of 2008.

Hi, I'm Meirion a user experience designer based in London, currently working at City University. I'm moving to Birmingham in July and seeking a role in the city centre. I'm looking at coming up to this Multipack to meet with you people and make some connections. I hope to make friends and pick some brains about working in the Birmingham area and the kinds of companies that are about etc.
Looking forward to Saturday... Who else is coming?
