    Anyone who is registered for the NBSI Conference is welcome to bid on the texts. So make sure you register before placing your bid!

    Please give your top 3 choices, as many people often want the same texts.

  • I've never told before, is that okay?

    The epic telling is a unique experience. As a result, participation in the epic telling is limited to people who have attended at least one previous NBSI Conference.

  • Who can come and listen?

    The Epic Telling is open to the public. We encourage you to invite your guests to the Epic Telling performance.

  • How many people are in attendance?

    It varies from year to year but the number is likely to be 100-150.
