Storytelling in conversations is a unique phenomenon. Thus far, research which takes as its subject storytelling in the conversational setting focuses primarily upon the structural aspects of "building story" (Mandelbaum, 1985). Almost nowhere does a researcher attempt explicit exploration of the performed features in conversational storytelling. What I propose is that the components of conversational storytelling--the narrator's telling and the audience's collaboration--are essentially constituted by performance. This study looks at conversational stories in order to explore some of the performed features within them.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Storytelling in conversations is a unique phenomenon. Thus far, research which takes as its subject storytelling in the conversational setting focuses primarily upon the structural aspects of "building story" (Mandelbaum, 1985). Almost nowhere does a researcher attempt explicit exploration of the performed features in conversational storytelling. What I propose is that the components of conversational storytelling--the narrator's telling and the audience's collaboration--are essentially constituted by performance. This study looks at conversational stories in order to explore some of the performed features within them.
520 $a In conversation analyses, we find that tellers utilize the performative devices available to them in direct quotation and in silence. Specifically, storytellers may move from a "narrative" mode in their tellings to a "showing" mode by embodying themselves or characters from the story world past. Such direct quotation often involves paralinguistic changes from the teller's own baseline. Interestingly, charting the instances of direct quoting reveals their presence as a common occurrence at the story's climax or punch line and instances of direct quotation often gain appreciative responses (such as laughter) from the story recipients.
520 $a Inherent within the roles of some tellers is also the tendency to pause for laughter and/or to build in "dramatic pauses" at strategic points in their tellings. The pauses which occur during the build-up phase of a three-part punch line are a clear example.
520 $a This study also explores performative roles that listeners can play during the course of a story's telling. Such features include prompting a particular story in which they might then join as co-teller, co-narrator. Other co-performances include the insertion of additional descriptive detail, humor performances, and playful deceits.
520 $a Storytelling in conversations is often not accomplished in one long, uninterrupted conversational turn, but is mutually constructed (or at least guided) by interactants who form a series of relationships according to their shared knowledge and experience (Langellier, 1989:256). Examining the roles of listeners during storytelling episodes unveils the conversational setting as a uniquely constructed stage of shared performance opportunities.
