Another Round Storytelling
The August edition of Another Round Storytelling is upon us! On Thursday, August 1st, we welcome featured storyteller Susan Kent, cohost of “Tell It: Brooklyn" and veteran of “The Moth" StorySLAM. Listen to her story "Baby Girl" on a recent edition of “The Moth" podcast.
Another Round Storytelling is a monthly open mic series that takes place at LaunchPad (721 Franklin Ave.) in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, at 8:00 p.m. The show features five 10-minute open mic slots followed by a special guest, plus a free cocktail to fuel the storytelling fire. So bring your best tales of drunken disorder and toss your name into the cocktail shaker! The $5 suggested donation benefits LaunchPad, a nonprofit arts and performance space.
Susan Kent is from a small town in South Georgia and currently lives in Park Slope, Brooklyn. She tells stories at events like “The Moth" StorySLAM, 826 NYC’s “Knight of Time" and "Tell It: Brooklyn," a storytelling series that she hosts with Victoria Scroggins. Her favorite drink is a bottle of Bud, because she’s classy.
