Everyone has at least one great story. A true event from their lives that is so strange, funny, tragic or heartwarming that it begs to be told. Comic Biography Theatre is devoted to telling those tales as comic book stories.

Debuting at the 2004 Bumbershoot arts festival in Seattle, CBT was conceived of as interactive live theatre. Popular comic book artists such as Phil Foglio, Roberta Gregory, Rick Hoberg and James Dean Smith each had four hours to draw up real stories submitted by festival attendees.

CBT turned out to be so much fun that we’re continuing it at Cascadia Con. We’ll be accepting stories before and during the con. (See submission info below.)

All stories must be true. We’re open to anything as long as it actually happened. However, since Cascadia is a science fiction convention, we’re particularly interested in bizarre, unexplainable events. (Think X-Files meets the Real World.)

All stories must be relatively brief since most will be drawn as one- or two-page comic book stories. So pick an interesting moment or brief event from your life (such as the time your brother stuffed a live lizard down your pants during Aunt Muriel’s wedding) rather than a long complicated event (such as your 35-year search for the perfect bean burrito.)

Please submit the text of your story in the body of an e-mail rather than an attachment. Send to CBT Editor John Lustig at John at Last Kiss Comics All stories become the property of Comic Biography Theatre.
