Upcoming Storytelling Shows

PLEASE NOTE:
We have a mix of virtual only – meaning on Zoom – and in-person shows throughout the year. We have listed whether they are in-person or virtual below.

Want to “Become a Storyteller?” The good news is, you already are! But, if you really want to be a Better Said Than Done storyteller, the first step is to come to one of our live shows in Northern Virginia (or online!). We have a particular style and format that creates a unique storytelling experience and you have to see it to get it. After that, take one of our workshops to learn the craft or just jump right in and sign up for a show. Look at our upcoming shows, think of a story that fits the theme, and submit your pitch on our storyteller contact page.
