There will be door prizes for the audience as well because we like to share the love. We promise, you don’t have to tell a story to win. Just come to the show!

Jessica Robinson, storyteller and founder of Better Said Than Done, explains why she is running the competition as a popular vote contest: “The top ten performers in “Best in Show” were selected because people love their stories and want to see them perform in the show, want to see them win. I had no part in the selection and I love that. I love sitting back and watching who was voted a finalist and who will be voted as the best of the best at the show.”
