StorySlam2 | Newton MA News and Politics BlogThe Newton Nomadic Theater periodically runs an event called the Nomad Story Slam.  They are nights of community story telling.  Each slam has a theme and anyone can come and throw their name in the hat to tell a five minute story – and they have been wonderful nights of amazing stories.

Every Sunday, I post a single video story from the Nomad Story Slam archive.

Gregorian Rugs is the home of these events.  At the 2nd Nomad Story Slam back in Jan 2015, we finished the night by inviting John Gregorian up to tell a story.   He tells the story of traveling to Persia with his father on a rug buying trip, when he was 16 years old.
