THEME ️
*********
This month our theme is Sticky. Expect stories of the sticky, tacky, and difficult to remove. Stories that cling, ooze, and leave a lasting impression. The glue that remains when you peel off a sticker, the feel of the floor in a busy nightclub, or the sticking feeling after taking off a plaster. The sticky stifling air of a steam room, or the unknown squelchy patch that you put your foot in. Glues, paints and slugs. Superglue, epoxy resin and mud. Gooey mishaps in the kitchen, sticky cakes and pastries. Hot and sticky weather. Sticky notes, sellotape and fragile stickers. Glue traps, gunge and lube. Sticker collections, sticky situations, or things that just wont let go. Marshmallows around a campfire, sweet successes, or situations you can't escape. Stories of the uncertain, awkward or tricky...
Have you got a story that sticks with you? Then come tell us at the Wardrobe Theatre on April 14th

CONTENT WARNINGS ⚠️
*********
In the interest of making the Story Slam a safe and comfortable place to be, storytellers are able to attach content warnings to their stories, to warn of any sensitive or distressing topics. Details of how to do this will be explained on the day. Content warnings are read out before each story to give people a chance to leave the room if they so wish.
