WILDCARD! True Stories Told Live By YOU
WILDCARD! True Stories Told Live By You, An Open Mic Story Swap presented by In a Nutshell Storytelling
Hey, Sacramento. Come dance with us. 💃
WILDCARD! is happening Wednesday, June 17, and we really, truly want you there.
We're building an awesome storytelling community here at WILDCARD, and in the next few months, it's gonna be more electric, more fun, and more worth showing up for than ever before. We're not ready to spill everything yet, but we're rolling out something new in June that will make the night even more interactive, and we want you in the room when it happens.
True stories, told live, by you. That's always been the whole point. And it keeps getting better.
Our Featured Storyteller:
Lorraine Gonzalez — a feel-good story about twerking the night away and everything that comes with it. Come for the dancing. Stay for the heart.
And of course, the NOT HAT.
Anyone can put their name in. Eight minutes. True story. Crafted with your best intentions. Some people tell their first story at WILDCARD. Others come back month after month to stretch their craft, or to be part of a room where humans actually listen to each other.
Either way, you belong here.
"Anyone can step up to the mic. All we ask is that you step up with intention." — THEE Amy Bee
Your hosts for the evening:
Keith Lowell Jensen will be keeping things warm, keeping things moving, and probably saying something that ties the whole night together in a way that makes you go, "wait, how did he do that?"
Amy Bee will be co-hosting, fluttering around, and trying very hard not to spontaneously combust from excitement about what we're building.
Aaron Carnes will be scanning your ticket, providing structural support, and radiating quiet competence. (Eye candy status: hubba hubba, per Amy Bee.)
📅 Wednesday, June 17 | 7pm (doors at 6pm — come early to sign up and put your name in the NOT HAT!) 📍 Teneral Cellars | 1050 20th St #110, Midtown Sacramento 🎟️ $15 in advance or door
Teneral is a beautiful wine tasting room in the heart of Midtown — come early, get a glass, settle in. Stay after and keep talking. The night doesn't have to end when the stories do.
We are building something wonderful here in Sacramento. Come help us build it.
🌀 An optional monthly theme: a jumping-off point for those who want one. But the NOT HAT is always open to any true, personal story. No theme required. The most unexpected stories are often the best ones. JUNE’S OPTIONAL THEME: SHAKE WHAT YOUR MAMA GAVE YOU!
