"When the child was a child It walked with its arms swinging, wanted
the brook to be a river, the river to be a torrent, and this puddle to
be the sea...
" - Handke
"Pitch!" is a live storytelling event with a twist. Four fearless
storytellers: Erin Markey, Corn Mo, Mike Albo, and David Commander
perform in front of an audience while simultaneously pitching their
story to a publishing world heavyweight! Francesco Sedita President
and Publisher Grosset and Dunlap/PSS! Penguin Young Readers Group is
at the editor's desk on April 19th. Our guest editor will share their
feedback and maybe even a possible yes or no on the spot! Willing
audience members are also invited to submit a rapid fire 15 second
pitch.
Your hosts Greg Walloch and Mark Allen keep it lively and irreverent!
Will the performers have what it takes? Will you have what it takes?
Witness amazing stories, insightful editorial commentary, and the
intense process of being a writer more closely than you've ever
imagined. It's time for your inner child's big break. What are you
waiting for? "Pitch!"
What people are saying about Greg Walloch and Mark Allen:
"It's not often that the typically rough-and-tumble atmosphere of the
comedy stage softens enough to allow such moments of delicate human
tenderness." - The New York Times
"Then... there's Mark Allen." - NPR
