Anyone can tell a story!
We produce two different types of shows: The Monti and The Monti StorySLAM.
“I love both The Monti and The Monti StorySLAM.  When I want a guarantee of finely crafted narratives, I go to The Monti; when I want great stories that are raw and unexpected, I go to the SLAMs.  They’re perfect complements!”

We all know that sinking feeling when you realize you’ve been caught. Maybe it was a harmless fib that unraveled fast, a rule you thought you could bend, or a secret you swore no one would ever find out. We want to hear your tales of getting Busted. On Saturday, June 7th, we’re diving into the moments when the cover’s blown, the curtain’s pulled back, and there’s no talking your way out of it. Whether it was getting called out, caught red-handed, or exposed in a way you never saw coming, we want your stories of getting caught—messy, hilarious, mortifying, or maybe even freeing.


NOTE: there are other ways to interpret the theme, Busted (eg. a fall where something is broken), and we are open to all ideas.
