Baltimore Story Fest 2026 - Day 3: The Art of Storytelling at The Philip Arnoult Stage, Theatre Project

Baltimore Story Fest 2026 - Day 3: The Art of Storytelling is the third and final session of a three-day writing and storytelling intensive curated and directed by Phill Branch at The Philip Arnoult Stage, Theatre Project. This closing session focuses on translating written work into spoken narrative, with Branch drawing on his experience as a Moth GrandSLAM Champion to guide participants through presence, pacing, and audience connection. Branch is also a regional Emmy Award-winning filmmaker, Lambda Literary Emerging Voices Fellow, and author of the forthcoming memoir The Double Dutch Fuss, which has received a starred review from Library Journal. Participants will have the opportunity to share their work in a workshop-style environment, completing a journey that began with personal narrative writing and moved through craft and structure.
