Story Club South Side is the newest chapter of Chicago’s premier storytelling open-mic event, blending the spontaneity of an open-mic with the thrill of live theater. At the Mash tun event, Story Club presents a slew of terrifically talented featured storytellers sharing true yarns for your amazement and amusement. Our headliners include famed live-lit impresario, Dana Norris, whose real-life accounts of Internet dates have delighted and shocked audiences all over the city. Even now we’re drawing together other local talents to join us at this stellar celebration of stories.

Laugh at our pain. Squirm when things get awkward. Story Club gets you right in the feels.

This show also sports a number of 8-minute-long open-mic slots for brave visitors ready to tell true tales through our mic. When your time is up, we cut you off, so cut to the chase. Sign up for a chance to share your story — we draw names for these coveted spots.

So come by, eat food from Mr. Spanky’s and our evening’s special Mystery Chef, drink beers from Revolution Brewing, and take in a story or five. You can hardly wait!
