Storytelling uses voice, body, and emotion to create connection, evoke empathy, and deliver a lasting impact. It blends theater, spoken word, and oral tradition into a live performance art.

What is Storytelling?
Humans have been telling stories since the beginning of time. Learn to create your own! Re-examine your life story to find your most unique experiences, then explore the themes and lessons that connect us all. Use your voice to tell the story you know the best: YOURS!
Storytelling has been a tradition as long as humans languages have existed. A great story builds community by using a narrative to explain some universal truth. Whether you are teaching a child a lesson or pitching a product to a buyer, telling a story allows you to establish an emotional connection with your listener. Contemporary, performative Storytelling has recently gained popularity thanks to programs like Ted Talks and The Moth Storytelling Hour.
Dallas Comedy Club’s Storytelling program coaches students through the process of using their own experiences to create compelling stories to tell. Continuing the millennia-old tradition of oral storytelling, students learn to take their stories to the stage!
