Fun around town, for $10 or less:

A little while back, we told you about the First Person Story Tour and its colorful "mascot," the Story Tour Van. The Story Tour was a promotion to build up some buzz for the First Person Festival. Well, it's that time. The festival kicks off today with a wide range of events. The events are priced from free to $35 (the two most expensive events include food as part of the ticket price), and there's a bit of something for everyone. The Festival takes place entirely at 2111 Sansom Street, home of the Philadelphia Shakespeare Festival, so no matter which event you're going to, you'll know where to be, and you won't have to scramble from one location to another when you're going to multiple events.

A few weeks ago, Phillyist recommended checking out First Person Story Slams. If you missed that opportunity, dust off your best tales of the city and make your way to L’Etage tonight. Tonight’s topic is “Home and Away”.

If you're the person who's always got a good tale to tell to your circle of friends, why not stop bending their ears and head down to First Person StorySlams? Sponsored by First Person Arts, it's your opportunity to tell your favorite stories in front of an audience, and maybe even win a chance to compete at November's Grand Slam and secure the title of Philadelphia's Best Storyteller.
