Speak Up at CMCH: Master Class with Matthew Dicks

June 1, 2019 @ 9:30 am - 4:30 pm

We’re sorry, but this program is sold out!

Speak Up co-founder and 38-time Moth StorySLAM winner and 6-time GrandSLAM champion Matthew Dicks will be teaching a day-long workshop for those storytellers with stories ready to tell and are looking to revise, rewrite, and/or fine-tune through performance and critique.

Getting ready to perform a story for The Moth? Preparing a presentation for the workplace? Hoping to craft a story for an upcoming keynote? Refine a story for your sales pitch? Or maybe just looking to tell the best story at your upcoming family gathering?

This workshop is for you.

This is an all-stories all-day workshop focused solely on the stories told in class. Participants should either bring two stories to share over the course of the day or a single story that they will tell in the morning, receive feedback, and re-tell in the afternoon.

Registration is $110 for CMCH members and $120 for non-members. Space is limited and pre-registration is required. Tickets can be purchased here.

Lunch is not included, but there will be a lunch break. Bring your own or ask CMCH staff about local eateries.
