Pitch a story
We love connecting with storytellers and sharing their work with our Main Stage audience in Beacon, NY!
We currently offer two paths to the Main Stage lineup:
Compete in our monthly Story Slam: we’re always scouting for good stories, and if you win our Big Story Showdown, you’re automatically in!
Send us a recording: use this form to share a link to an audio or video of you performing your 6-12 minute story (preferably in front of a live audience.)
If you go the pitch-a-story route, please only send one link per person per month. We get a lot of pitches and want to make sure we have time to review them all.
ARTICHOKE PITCH PRO TIP! ARTICHOKE is ultimately a comedy show. While we don’t mind a solemn moment or two, we ask that performers leave things on a high note. And, because we have cultivated a beautifully diverse audience, we avoid partisan politics and tread lightly with hot button topics.
