Coyote Tales are live, open-mic style storytelling events with amateur and experienced storytellers. Each event has a theme on which stories are to be based. Potential storytellers may address that theme in any way they choose. Prior to the event, storytellers craft their true, on-theme story, practice the telling (5 minutes or less), and work on eliminating excess detail to nail the perfect ending. When the doors open, potential storytellers put their name in the hat in hopes of being chosen to share their tale. If chosen, the storyteller takes the stage to delight the audience. The theme for this evening’s stories is: “Garde!” Note: some listeners may find some stories’ subject matter difficult. This event generously supported by Utah Humanities and Petite Feast If you are interested in getting on stage, please visit the Coyote Tales website to learn more about speaking tips and coaching opportunities. The stories will begin at 7:30pm on April 18th . A pre-show cocktail* party will start at 6:30.
