Bellevue Literary Review, an award-winning nonprofit literary arts organization that mines the connective tissue between illness, healing, and the arts, is producing a live storytelling event in NYC this fall on the theme of “Body Politic.” They are seeking true, personal stories about the fraught intersection of the body, healthcare, and society.

If selected, you will have the opportunity to work closely with a professional storytelling coach over the course of several months to explore, edit, and develop your story, and to prepare you for the stage.

They encourage people of all backgrounds and ages to submit a two-minute recorded pitch via Submittable.

Requirements

You must be able to attend the event in-person in NYC, Saturday evening, November 16, 2024. No prior writing or performance experience required.
