Tell-All Boston seeks seven minutes of well-crafted memoir and personal essay that takes us on a journey. Show us the world from unique and unexpected perspectives. Tell us how a single encounter changed the course of your life, or how a lifetime of experiences shaped the person you are today. Move us. Be poignant. Be funny. Most of all, be true – to your story and your feelings.
Submissions are open for our 2021-2022 season.
The submission deadline for our Oct. 7 event is Sept. 10.
Submissions received after Sept. 10 will be considered for future events this season.
